Sort of. The code is indeed a bit complicated, there are 3 possible
states: "disabled", "enabled", "enabled but suspended"

When the device resumes it should enable the controller only if it was
enabled before (not if screen is blanked). After some digging I found
that suspend/resume could be better implemented using
drm_mode_config_helper_suspend/resume. This should automatically
remember the crtc state "properly" without keeping state in the driver.

One notable issue is that the lcdif block is only powered while the
crtc is enabled but mxsfb_plane_atomic_update can be called outside
that. So we need to check if the CRTC is enabled inside
mxsfb_plane_atomic_update and avoid writing to hardware. Instead the HW
write for next is delayed for the next mxsfb_crtc_mode_set_nofb.

Does this make sense? Being unable to update the plane if the crtc is
not enabled seems like it would be a common limitation of simple
display controllers.

Writing the FB paddr from mxsfb_crtc_mode_set_nofb feels wrong and I'm
not sure it behaves correctly: when the display is resumed it seems to
output an initial frame of incorrect data. It's possible the enable
sequence needs to be adjusted.
