The "plane" pointer was access before checking if it was NULL.

The drm_atomic_get_old_plane_state() function will dereference
the pointer "plane".
345    struct drm_plane_state *old_plane_state =
        drm_atomic_get_old_plane_state(state, plane);
346    struct drm_plane_state *new_plane_state =
        drm_atomic_get_new_plane_state(state, plane);

A NULL check for "plane" indicates that it may be NULL
363    if (!plane || !new_plane_state || !old_plane_state)

Is this an actual bug that happens?

All planes should always have a state. Therefore the tests for !new_plane_state and !old_plane_state can be removed, I'd say.

Just to clarify: moving the test for !plane before using one of the get_plane_state functions is a correct bugfix.

Best regards
