Geert reports that the following NULL pointer dereference happens for him
after commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each
plane update"):

    [drm] Initialized ssd130x 1.0.0 20220131 for 0-003c on minor 0
    ssd130x-i2c 0-003c: [drm] surface width(128), height(32), bpp(1)
    and format(R1   little-endian (0x20203152))
    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

    ...

The problem is that fbcon calls fbcon_init() which triggers a DRM modeset
and this leads to drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() attempting to commit
the atomic state for all planes, even the ones whose CRTC is not enabled.

Since the primary plane buffer is allocated in the encoder .atomic_enable
callback, this happens after that initial modeset commit and leads to the
mentioned NULL pointer dereference.

Fix this by allocating the buffers in the struct drm_plane_helper_funcs
.begin_fb_access callback and free them in to .end_fb_access callback,
instead of doing it when the encoder is enabled.

Changes in v3:
- Move the buffers allocation to the plane helper funcs .begin_fb_access
  and the free to .end_fb_access callbacks.
- Always allocate intermediate buffer because is use in ssd130x_clear_screen().
- Don't allocate the buffers as device managed resources.

Changes in v2:
- Move the buffers allocation to .fb_create instead of preventing atomic
  updates for disable planes.
- Don't allocate the intermediate buffer when using the native R1 format.
- Allocate buffers as device managed resources.
