For atomic the lock we need is dev->mode_config.connection_mutex); Maybe
we should just grab that here, from a quick check it shouldn't result in a
deadlock.

You need to set connector->state->link_status here for an atomic property.

And this here isn't needed anymore with atomic.

enum drm_link_status {
	DRM_LINK_STATUS_GOOD = DRM_MODE_LINK_STATUS_GOOD;
	DRM_LINK_STATUS_BAD = DRM_MODE_LINK_STATUS_GOOD;
};

This way you don't need a comment explaing that 0 is good and 1 is bad.

This one needs to go, we don't want to duplicate this information.

The change to reset link_status to good for SETCRTC seems to be missing.
Something like the below (totally untested) should get the job done.

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c
index 494680c9056e..5f47049d611e 100644

 			if (ret)
 				return ret;

 	}
 
Small exercise for you: Follow the call chain of this function and figure
out how it works. And let's hope I did it right and it does work ;-)

Cheers, Daniel
