Alternatively, something like

        bool dirty = intel_crtc->cursor_base != base;

        if (intel_crtc->cursor_cntl != cntl) {
                I915_WRITE(CURCNTR(pipe), cntl);
                dirty = true;
        }

        /* ... */

        if (!dirty)
                return;

        I915_WRITE(CURBASE(pipe), base);
        POSTING_READ(CURBASE(pipe));

        intel_crtc->cursor_cntl = cntl;
        intel_crtc->cursor_base = base;

I think would have clearer control flow.
