[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v5 2/2] drm/i915: Wait for PSR exit before checking for vblank evasion

[Tarun Vyas]

The PIPEDSL freezes on PSR entry and if PSR hasn't fully exited, then
the pipe_update_start call schedules itself out to check back later.

On ChromeOS-4.4 kernel, which is fairly up-to-date w.r.t drm/i915 but
lags w.r.t core kernel code, hot plugging an external display triggers
tons of "potential atomic update errors" in the dmesg, on *pipe A*. A
closer analysis reveals that we try to read the scanline 3 times and
eventually timeout, b/c PSR hasn't exited fully leading to a PIPEDSL
stuck @ 1599. This issue is not seen on upstream kernels, b/c for *some*
reason we loop inside intel_pipe_update start for ~2+ msec which in this
case is more than enough to exit PSR fully, hence an *unstuck* PIPEDSL
counter, hence no error. On the other hand, the ChromeOS kernel spends
~1.1 msec looping inside intel_pipe_update_start and hence errors out
b/c the source is still in PSR.

Regardless, we should wait for PSR exit (if PSR is disabled, we incur
a ~1-2 usec penalty) before reading the PIPEDSL, b/c if we haven't
fully exited PSR, then checking for vblank evasion isn't actually
applicable.

v4: Comment explaining psr_wait after enabling VBL interrupts (DK)

v5: CAN_PSR() to handle platforms that don't support PSR.
