[Intel-gfx] [PATCH RFC] drm: Add a new connector atomic property for link status

Wed Nov 23 01:30:21 UTC 2016


This is RFC patch for adding a connector link-status property
and making it atomic by adding it to the drm_connector_state.
This is to make sure its wired properly in drm_atomic_connector_set_property
and drm_atomic_connector_get_property functions.
