Also you just flat out can't access crtc->state from interrupt
context. Anything you need in there needs to be protected by the right
irq-type spin_lock, updates correctly synchronized against both the
interrupt handler and atomic updates, and data copied over, not
pointers. Otherwise just crash&burn.
