           Summary: [Bisected BDW drm-intel-fixes] Enable PSR feature by

          Severity: major
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: wendy.wang at intel.com
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: DRM/Intel
           Product: DRI

By kernel default setting, PSR feature is false, we need insert
"i915.enable_psr=1" parameter in kernel to enable the PSR in kernel, after
reboot, run xinit &, x fail to start.

this issue happened from 2014_03_07 nightly branch to the latest nightly
branch, before that no such issue.

Do bisect find  drm-intel-fixes branch,
24bd9bf54d45d28089251cdf62bf14323d1aa827 is the first bad commit, revert this
commit, issue disappeared.

This issue found on BDW platform, did not reproduce on HSW platform.

    drm/i915: Fix PSR programming

    | has a higher precedence than ?. Therefore, the calculation doesn't do
    at all what you would expect. Thanks to Ken for convincing me that this
    was indeed the issue. Send me back to C programmer school, please.

    I'm sort of surprised PSR was continuing to work for people. It should
    be broken IMO (and it was broken for me, but I had assumed it never
    worked).

    Regression from:
