[PATCH 0/3] drm/amd/display: fixes for kernel crashes since cursor overlay mode

[Melissa Wen]

Hi,

Some issues have been found by Cosmic users of AMD display since the
introduction of cursor overlay mode: page fault and divide errors
causing interface freezes. Both are 100% reproducible and affects
multiple HW versions.

Patch 1 addresses the page fault error by resolving the definition
mismatch around the number of surfaces supported by the hw, where two
different values (MAX_SURFACES and MAX_SURFACE_NUM) would be taken
through the DC surface updates flow. The regular flow take MAX_SURFACES
== 3 into account and commit_minimal_transition_state uses
MAX_SURFACE_NUM == 6. I noticed that Leo Li has proposed this change in
a previous discussion [1], so I added a Suggested-by tag.

Patch 2 expands the maximum number of surfaces to four, since it's
supported by the hw. Also, this amount accomodates current needs,
avoiding `dc_state_add_plane` complaints of not enough resource. Note
that it somehow reverts the change proposed by [2].

Patch 3 fixes a kernel oops due to division by zero error by checking if
the destination scale size is zero, avoiding calculation and just
setting the out-scale size to zero, similar to what is  done by
drm_calc_scale(). Even though the missing check in dm_get_plane_scale()
wasn't introduced by cursor overlay mode, AFAIU the cursor mode
assessment happens before plane state checks, so
amdgpu_dm_plane_helper_check_state() can't prevent
dm_crtc_get_cursor_mode() taking an invisible plane into account.
