taal_bl_update_status was missing locks to protect taal_data. This caused
a kernel crash randomly, as the code attempted to set the brightness while
the OMAP's DSI block was actually disabled.
Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@nokia.com>
Using nanoseconds as arguments to functions that set the DSI timeouts was
perhaps not so good idea. The timeouts are based on different DSI clocks,
so the possible range for the timeouts vary greatly depending on the
clocks. Also, the multipliers used with the timeouts cause big gaps in the
timeout range, meaning that the nanosecond based functions could cause the
timeout to be quite far from the intended value.
This patch changes the functions to take the plain tick values with the
multiplier enable/disable bits, and sets the TA/LP_RX/HS_TX timeouts to
maximum. While the timeouts could be much lower, the fact is that when
TA/LP_RX/HS_TX timeout happens, we are in an error situation and not in a
hurry anyway.
STOP_STATE_COUNTER is a different matter, but it is only used at
initialization time, and won't normally affect the performance.

Using the shared workqueue led to to a deadlock in the case where the
display was unblanked via keyboard.
What happens is something like this:
- User presses a key
context 1:
- drivers/char/keyboard.c calls schedule_console_callback()
- fb_unblank takes the console semaphore
- dsi bus lock is taken, and frame transfer is started (dsi bus lock is
left on)
- Unblank code tries to set the panel backlight, which tries to take dsi
bus lock, but is blocked while the frame transfer is going on
context 2, shared workqueue, console_callback in drivers/char/vt.c:
- Tries to take console semaphore
- Blocks, as console semaphore is being held by context 1
- No other shared workqueue work can be run
context 3, HW irq, caused by FRAMEDONE interrupt:
- Interrupt handler schedules framedone-work in shared workqueue
- Framedone-work is never ran, as the shared workqueue is blocked. This
means that the unblank thread stays blocked, which means that context 2
stays blocked.
While I think the real problem is in keyboard/virtual terminal code, using
a private workqueue in the DSI driver is perhaps safer and more robust
than using the shared one. The DSI works should not be delayed more than a
millisecond or so, and even if the private workqueue gives us no hard
promise of doing so, it's still safer bet than the shared workqueue.

Separate the memory region from the framebuffer device a little bit.
It's now possible to select the memory region used by the framebuffer
device using the new mem_idx parameter of omapfb_plane_info. If the
mem_idx is specified it will be interpreted as an index into the
memory regions array, if it's not specified the framebuffer's index is
used instead. So by default each framebuffer keeps using it's own
memory region which preserves backwards compatibility.
This allows cloning the same memory region to several overlays and yet
each overlay can be controlled independently since they can be
associated with separate framebuffer devices.

When there are multiple scaled overlays simply checking whether the update
area intersects any of them in order is not enough. If eg. VID1 starts out
completely outside the update area but VID2 causes the update area to
increase in such a way that VID1 now falls partially within the increased
update area VID1 should be rechecked and the update area possibly
increased even further to fully encompass VID1. So simply keep looping
over the overlays until such time that none of the overlays caused the
update area to change.

I was observing the following error messages on my OMAP1 based Amstrad Delta
board when first changing from text to graphics mode or vice versa after the
LCD display had been blanked:
omapfb omapfb: timeout waiting for FRAME DONE
with a followup error message while unblanking it back:
omapfb omapfb: resetting (status 0xffffffb2,reset count 1)
As a visible result, image pixels happened to be shifted by a few bits,
giving wrong colors.
Examining the code, I found that this problem occures when an OMAP1 internal
LCD controller is disabled from omap_lcdc_suspend() and then a subsequent
omap_lcdc_setup_plane() calls disable_controller() again. This potentially
error provoking behaviour is triggered by the lcdc.update_mode flag being kept
at OMAP_AUTO_UPDATE, regardless of the controller and panel being suspended.
This patch tries to correct the problem by replacing both omap_lcdc_suspend()
and omap_lcdc_resume() function bodies with single calls to
omap_lcdc_set_update_mode() with a respective OMAP_UPDATE_DISABLE or
OMAP_AUTO_UPDATE argument. As a result, exactly the same lower level
operations are performed, with addition of changing the lcdc.update_mode flag
to a value better suited for the controller state. This prevents any further
calls to disable_controller() from omap_lcdc_setup_plane() while the display
is suspended.
Created against linux-2.6.34-rc7.
Tested on Amstrad Delta.
