Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 49d7d581ceaf4cf8
("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each plane update") in
drm-misc/for-linux-next.

This appears to be too late, causing a NULL pointer dereference:

[   59.302761] [<c0303d90>] ssd130x_update_rect.isra.0+0x13c/0x340
[   59.304231] [<c0304200>]
ssd130x_primary_plane_helper_atomic_update+0x26c/0x284
[   59.305716] [<c02f8d54>] drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes+0xfc/0x27c

Bailing out from ssd130x_update_rect() when data_array is still NULL
fixes that.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

                        Geert
