The patches were reverted because the corresponding IGT/compositor 
changes were not posted yet. We will re-try applying once those are 
accepted.

Regarding KUnit tests, no we did not run this test and yes you are 
right, we were not running KUnit testing as the DRM CI mainly validates IGT.

We will certainly help to fix this failure. Most likely the KUnit tests 
need to be fixed to allow for a NULL FB.

If this is documented somewhere as a requirement, please share it and we 
should add KUnit testing to our DRM CI as well so that atleast this kind 
of failure will not repeat.
