The WM/BUF_CFG register double buffering is armed by the plane surface
register, so if you're removing this write, all you actually end up
doing is skipping the watermark update. So this is just papering over
the bug.

This might even cause more explosions when enabling pipes, as the DDB
configuration for the cursors on the already enabled pipes might not
even get updated, and hence multiple planes migth end up trying to use
the same part of the DDB for their FIFOs.
