Do you mean something along the lines of:

and
} __legacy;
struct __plane_legacy_or_something *legacy;
and initially unconditionally:
p->legacy = &p->__legacy;
but later, once atomic drivers have been fixed:
if (!drm_core_check_feature(dev, DRIVER_COMPUTE_ATOMIC))
p->legacy = &p->__legacy;
It would make the last update really simple.
