[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Program LUT before intel_color_commit() if LUT was not previously set

[Hans de Goede]

Since commit 051a6d8d3ca0 ("drm/i915: Move LUT programming to happen after
vblank waits"), I am seeing an ugly colored flash of the first few display
lines on 2 Cherry Trail devices when the gamma table gets set for the first
time. A blue flash on a GPD win and a yellow flash on an Asus T100HA.

The problem is that since this change, the LUT is programmed after the
write *and latching* of the double-buffered register which causes the LUT
to be used starting at the next frame. This means that the old LUT is still
used for the first couple of lines of the display. If no LUT was in use
before then the LUT registers may contain bogus values. This leads to
messed up colors until the new LUT values are written. At least on CHT DSI
panels this causes messed up colors on the first few lines.

This commit fixes this by adding a load_lut_before_commit boolean,
modifying intel_begin_crtc_commit to load the luts earlier if this is set,
and setting this from intel_color_check when a LUT table was not in use
before (and thus may contain bogus values), or when the table size
changes.

Fixes: 051a6d8d3ca0 ("drm/i915: Move LUT programming to happen after vblank waits")
