[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/6] drm/i915: save some time when waiting the eDP timings

From: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni at intel.com>

The eDP spec defines some points where after you do action A, you have
to wait some time before action B. The thing is that in our driver
action B does not happen exactly after action A, but we still use
msleep() calls directly. What this patch does is that we record the
timestamp of when action A happened, then, just before action B, we
look at how much time has passed and only sleep the remaining amount
needed.

With this change, I am able to save about 5-20ms (out of the total
200ms) of the backlight_off delay and completely skip the 1ms
backlight_on delay. The 600ms vdd_off delay doesn't happen during
normal usage anymore due to a previous patch.

v2: - Rename ironlake_wait_jiffies_delay to intel_wait_until_after and
      move it to intel_display.c
    - Fix the msleep call: diff is in jiffies
v3: - Use "tmp_jiffies" so we don't need to worry about the value of
      "jiffies" advancing while we're doing the math.
v4: - Rename function again.
    - Move function to i915_drv.h.
    - Store last_power_cycle at edp_panel_off too.
    - Use msecs_to_jiffies_timeout, then replace the msleep with an
      open-coded version that avoids the extra +1 jiffy.
    - Try to add units to every variable name so we don't confuse
      jiffies with milliseconds.
