PATCH 1/2 drm/dp: retry AUX transactions 32 times

From: Dave Airlie <[email protected]>

At least on two MST devices I've tested with, when they are link training downstream, they are totally unable to handle aux ch msgs, so they defer like nuts. I tried 16, it wasn't enough, 32 seems better.

This fixes one Dell 4k monitor and one of the MST hubs.

PATCH 2/2 drm/fb_helper: move deferred fb checking into restore mode

From: Dave Airlie <[email protected]>

On MST systems the monitors don't appear when we set the fb up, but plymouth opens the drm device and holds it open while they come up, when plymouth finishes and lastclose gets called we don't do the delayed fb probe, so the monitor never appears on the console.

Fix this by moving the delayed checking into the mode restore.

Preexisting bug but ->delayed_hotplug is protected in the hotplug handler by mode_config.mutex. But fixing that will get annoying so not sure if it's worth it. Just wrapping the access with the lock shouldn't hurt though I think.

I think we have a bug with some dongle that defers a lot too. One idea was to use a progressively longer delay for DP_AUX_NATIVE_REPLY_DEFER.

How about drm_dp_i2c_do_msg(), that one can receive native aux defer too, along with i2c defer. It feels like both places should have the same limit for native aux defer, but if you want to keep different i2c defer retry limit it gets a bit trickier.

BR,
Jani.

I think we want to keep the spec limit there, since its in the spec,

But you might be right on wanting to extend the defer therre as well if we can, I'll probably tackle that in a second patch.

Dave.
