[PATCH v4 0/1] drm/i915: Deal with upside-down mounted LCD panels

[Hans de Goede]

Hi All,

When I last send this patch not everyone was enthusiastic about this
patch. As already mentioned in the v2 discussion, solving this in userspace
is not really feasible since there is no single place to fix it there, it
will need fixing in at least 6 different places from the top of my head
(basically any app/server/"driver" talking directly to kms needs fixing)
Also fixing it in userspace will be quite complicated even in a single
consumer of the kms API.

It has been 3 months since my last version and no other solution has
materialized, so I would like to move forward with this patch.

The only technical objection against my previous version was that it
did not fix the subpixel order reported to userspace, that has been
fixed in this version and it has been rebased on top of the latest
drm-intel-next-queued.

New in v4: Fix compiler warning introduced in v3.

Regards,

Hans
