Now that I know to use buildkernel, not quickkernel, I'll try  putting 
in some traces. One thing I noticed is that there are a number of calls 
to set the framebuffer for a plane, most of which end up up settting no 
framebuffer (it shows as [NOFB] in the logs). On 5.8, one plane 
eventually gets a framebuffer assigned to it and there are no errors. On 
6.0, all the log messages for the planes show [NOFB] and eventually 
there are a couple error messages. One's a warning inside 
__drm_atomic_helper_set_config about the framebuffer pointer being NULL. 
So in some cases, having a NULL framebuffer is worth a warning and other 
it doesn't seem to be.
