drm_client_firmware_config() is currently picking up the current
mode of the crtc via the legacy crtc->mode, which is not supposed
to be used by atomic drivers at all. We can't simply switch over
to the proper crtc->state->mode because we drop the crtc->mutex
(which protects crtc->state) before the mode gets used.
The most straightforward solution to extend the lifetime of
modes[] seem to be to make full copies of the modes.
And with this we can undo also commit 3eadd887db
("drm/client:Fully protect modes[] with dev->mode_config.mutex")
as the lifetime of modes[] no longer has anything to do with
that lock.
v2: Don't try to copy NULL modes
v3: Keep storing pointers and use drm_mode_{duplicate,destroy}()

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
