Hi Liviu:

Colin's code is right.

Following code I copied from linux-next, and I checked drm-misc, the
code are same.

struct komeda_pipeline *slave = kcrtc->slave;
//---- First initialization.
struct completion *disable_done = &crtc->state->commit->flip_done;
bool needs_phase2 = false;

DRM_DEBUG_ATOMIC("CRTC%d_DISABLE: active_pipes: 0x%x, affected: 0x%x\n",
drm_crtc_index(crtc),
old_st->active_pipes, old_st->affected_pipes);

if (slave && has_bit(slave->id, old_st->active_pipes))
komeda_pipeline_disable(slave, old->state);

if (has_bit(master->id, old_st->active_pipes))
needs_phase2 = komeda_pipeline_disable(master, old->state);

//---- Secondary initialization.
disable_done = (needs_phase2 || crtc->state->active) ?
NULL : &crtc->state->commit->flip_done;

//--- First using is here.
/* wait phase 1 disable done */
komeda_crtc_flush_and_wait_for_flip_done(kcrtc, disable_done);

So the first initialization with the delcaration is unnecessary.

And I also checked our internal testing branch which actually doesn't have
the first initialization. seems somethings wrong when lowry submit this to
upstream.

Hi Colin:

Thanks for the fix. I'll push it to drm-misc-fixes
