We could do with validating that the CRTC is within the fb->obj,
otherwise we run foul of hanging the hardware. (Since this is a
pre-existing condition it doesn't mar these patches.)

So the only question is whether we indicate to userspace that the kernel
is fixed? Or just kill the w/a in userspace and for reasons of sanity
strongly encourage everyone who hits this to upgrade? Since this is no
stable material, having keeping the w/a seems to make sense...
