[Intel-gfx] [RFC PATCH 1/3] drm/915: Add private api for power well usage

Hi all,

Three things:
1. Any reason public mailing lists (intel-gfx, alsa-devel) aren't
cc'ed? Afaics no secret stuff is being discussed here ... Please
resend the patches with mailings lists cc'ed.

2. On a quick read of the hda driver stuff I don't think the power
well enable/disable places are at the right spot: We force the power
well on whenever the hda codec is used, but we must only do that when
we want to output audio to external screens. And since that state
transition can only really happen due to a modeset change on the gfx
side I don't think we need any autosuspend delays either.

The use-case I'm thinking of is media playback with just the panel
enabled: In that case we can switch off the power well on the display
side, and I don't think the power well is required for audio play back
on the integrated speakerrs/headphone-jack either.

3. The moduel depencies seem to still not work out dynamically, at
least I think we still have a hard chain between hda-intel and i915.ko
(just with one thing in between now).

Cheers, Daniel

> This module was based on David's original patch, which added pm_suspend/resume callback for hdmi codec. As the codecs and controller are both depending on powerwell,
> and codec *must* already on power so I moved the power well request/release to controller side and changed the module name to "hda-i915".
