[PATCH v4 0/3] faster vblank disable

Since, drm_crtc_vblank_on_config() was recently introduced, we want to
apply laxer vblanking policies across the board, since:

1. It will allow us to shut down interrupts faster for better power
   savings.

2. As a payment towards tech debt, since drm_vblank_offdelay (which
   defaults to 5s) isn't necessary on AMD hardware.

Also, patches 2-3 in this series provide even laxer policies and they
are intentionally separated from patch #1. This way, if issues with them
are encountered in the wild, it should be easy to bisect the issue to
those patches.


Hamza Mahfooz (3):
  drm/amd/display: use drm_crtc_vblank_on_config()
  drm/amd/display: use a more lax vblank enable policy for DCN35+
  drm/amd/display: use a more lax vblank enable policy for older ASICs
