In the function oaktrail_lvds_mode_set, I don't think that the following 
code makes any sense:

         /* Find the connector we're trying to set up */
         list_for_each_entry(connector, &mode_config->connector_list, head) {
                 if (!connector->encoder || connector->encoder->crtc != crtc)
                         continue;
         }

         if (!connector) {
                 DRM_ERROR("Couldn't find connector when setting mode");
                 return;
         }

         drm_connector_property_get_value(
                 connector,
                 dev->mode_config.scaling_mode_property,
                 &v);

The initial loop is a no-op, because it always continues.  The test 
!connector can never be true, because at the end of a list_for_each_entry 
connector points to the list head, and calling 
drm_connector_property_get_value on the list head probably does not make 
sense.
