The fb_obj_flush doesn't need to be inside the lock, so you can do it
after the normal error testing (or just do it since the flush doesn't
depend on having the vma bound).

Would
        if (IS_ERR(vma)) {
                ret = PTR_ERR(vma);
                break;
        }

        intel_fb_obj_flush(obj, ORIGIN_DIRTYFB);
        to_intel_plane_state(new_state)->vma = vma;

look neater here?

Lgtm,
