[PATCH v3 0/6] Add support for atomic async page-flips

This series adds support for DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_ASYNC for atomic
commits, aka. "immediate flip" (which might result in tearing).
The feature was only available via the legacy uAPI, however for
gaming use-cases it may be desirable to enable it via the atomic
uAPI too.

- User-space patch: https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/pull/595
- IGT patch: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/107681/

Main changes in v2: add docs, fail atomic commit if async flip isn't
possible.

Changes in v3: add a note in the documentation about Intel hardware,
add R-b tags.

Tested on an AMD Picasso iGPU (Simon) and an AMD Vangogh GPU (André).

Simon Ser (6):
  drm: document DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_ASYNC
  amd/display: only accept async flips for fast updates
  drm: introduce drm_mode_config.atomic_async_page_flip_not_supported
  drm: allow DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_ASYNC for atomic commits
  drm: introduce DRM_CAP_ATOMIC_ASYNC_PAGE_FLIP
  amd/display: indicate support for atomic async page-flips on DC
