I'd put the atomic one first. The reason why ->disable here is later is
that ->disable has some really funky meaning in the old legacy crtc
helpers, and hence ->prepare was preferrable: Legacy ->disable also was
supposed to release resources (something we now do in
->atomic_destroy_state). See the huge NOTE: in the @disable kerneldoc.

I'd add something like "For atomic drivers also consider @atomic_disable"
to the kerneldoc of @disable (before the NOTE: which is only relevant for
pre-atomic). Same for the enable side.

needs to be adjusted here for "takes priority".
