[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 0/1] Display glitches fixes

[Anshuman Gupta]

TGL chrome-OS platform has observed display glitches while
display brightness is being changed rapidly.
It creates a scenario where brightness is being changed simultaneously
with display flips updates in different threads.

Brightness update requires pps_lock, current pps_lock implementation
requires to get AUX power domain, which triggers DC3CO disallow/allow
sequence being async with display flips.

This triggers a race between dc3co exit delay and display flip,
and potentially causing a display glitch due to some display register
being programmed before completing dc3co exit delay.
Exactly which register programming causing this glitch is still
being work in progressed.

This patch adds a optimization to avoid unnecessary "DC off"
power well enable/disable(D3CO disallow/allow) noise around
brightness update.

This patch helps to remove the display glitch in case of simultaneous
brightness update and display flips.
