It's not dummy, because it clearly shows, what really is beyond this
capability. A feature without a backing implementation would be a dummy
patch (even if it's mentioned in the hw catalog entry).
Just a simple check. If we use a guillotine and cut the patch series in
the middle, which one will make more sense:
- #define DPU_MDP_TOP_UGLY
add DPU_MDP_TOP_UGLY to sdm999's features
- #define DPU_MDP_TOP_UGLY
add an implementation of DPU_MDP_TOP_UGLY describing what it does
With the first approach the MDP_TOP_UGLY is an ugly define without any
particular meaning. Mentioning it in the hw_catalog doesn't bring us any
additional information (in other words, what does it mean that sdm999
has MDP_TOP_UGLY feature?).
The second approach doesn't bind any chipset to use MDP_TOP_UGLY. But
knowing the implementation, one can check whether it applies to his
chipset or not.
Yes, I must admit, this case is a little bit odd. Regularly I'd have
added the sm8450's compat string and catalog entries, then I'd have
populated the catalog with new features one by one (using implementation
+ define + hw_catalog patch), like we do e.g. for DSC, WB,
DSPP_sub_flush, etc. In this particular case, sm8450 will not work
without PERIPH_0_REMOVED, as the first DSI underrun, which can easily
happen while turning on the INTF, will reboot the board.
