[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915: rewrite FBC's atomic CRTC-choosing code

Ville pointed out that intel_fbc_choose_crtc() is iterating over all
planes instead of just the primary planes. There are no real
consequences of this problem for HSW+, and for the other platforms it
just means that in some obscure multi-screen cases we'll keep FBC
disabled when we could have enabled it. Still, iterating over all
planes doesn't seem to be the best thing to do.
My initial idea was to just add a check for plane->type and be done,
but then I realized that in commits not involving the primary plane we
would reset crtc_state->enable_fbc back to false even when FBC is
enabled. That also wouldn't result in a bug due to the way the
enable_fbc variable is checked, but, still, our code can be better
than this.
So I went for the solution that involves tracking enable_fbc in the
primary plane state instead of the CRTC state. This way, if a commit
doesn't involve the primary plane for the CRTC we won't be resetting
enable_fbc back to false, so the variable will always reflect the
reality. And this change also makes more sense since FBC is actually
tied to the single plane and not the full pipe. As a bonus, we only
iterate over the CRTCs instead of iterating over all planes.
v2:
But Ville pointed that this only works properly if we have a single
commit with multiple CRTCs. If we have multiple parallel commits, each
with its own CRTC, we'll end with enable_fbc set to true in more than
one plane.
So the solution was to rename enable_fbc to can_enable_fbc. If we just
did the rename as the patch was, we'd end up with a single plane with
can_enable_fbc on commits involving multiple CRTCs: we'd choose the
best one, but we'd still end up with a variable that doesn't 100%
reflect reality.
So in the end I adopted Ville's suggestion of the fbc_score variable.
And then, instead of checking the score at intel_fbc_choose_crtc()
it should be possible to check for the score at intel_fbc_enable().
This allows us to simplify intel_fbc_choose_crtc() to the point where
it only needs to look at the given plane in order to assign its score
instead of looking at every primary plane on the same commit.
We still only set scores of 0 and 1 and we don't really do the
score-checking loop.
v3: Rebase.
v4:
Move intel_fbc_check_plane() call up so it will still zero the score
if the plane has no FB. (Ville).
