mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() is used to notify the page flip that has
been completed to the userspace, so userspace can free the frame buffer
of the last frame and commit the next frame.

However, mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() cannot guarantee the GCE has
configured all the display hardware settings of the last frame.
This may cause the display hardware to still access the last frame
buffer released by the userspace.

So add the checking condition of no pending_plens flags to make sure
GCE has executed all the pending planes configuration.

What's the probability?
If it's low probability, we could drop calling mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip().
If it's not low probability, I think drop calling mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() would reduce the fps and we should find another way.

It won't happen in display normal flow, which uses the
mbox_send_message() in IRQ context.
But it's easy to reproduce in display SVP flow, which uses the
mbox_send_message() to queue a work to the workqueue out of the IRQ
context for communicating with TEE world.

In mediaTek hardware design of configuring display hardware by GCE, I
think we should use mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() to notify 
`DRM_EVENT_FLIP_COMPLETED` to userspace when GCE finished configuring
all display hardware settings for each atomic_commit().

Although it's still no problem in display normal flow without this
modification.
But I believe we can increase the accuracy of the timing to notify
`DRM_EVENT_FLIP_COMPLETED` to userspace, if we called
mtk_crtc_finished_page_flip() when the all the display hardware
settings is configured.

Maybe this patch is not quite straightforward to express the meaning of
calling mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() after GCE completing all the
display configuration.
So after I verifying it in my local environment with SVP flow, I'll
move mtk_crtc_finish_page_flip() to the ddp_cmdq_cb() directly and send
the v2.
