Adam Jackson 0a31a44865 drm/i915: Use spatio-temporal dithering on PCH
Spatial dither is better than nothing, but ST is even better.

(from ajax's followup message:)
  I noticed this with:

  http://ajax.fedorapeople.org/YellowFlower.jpg

  set as my desktop background in Gnome on a 1280x800 machine (in
  particular, a Sony Vaio VPCB1 with 6-bit panel and a rather bright black
  level).  Easiest way to test this is by poking at PIPEACONF with
  intel_reg_write directly:

  % sudo intel_reg_write 0x70008 0xc0000040 # no dither
  % sudo intel_reg_write 0x70008 0xc0000050 # spatial
  % sudo intel_reg_write 0x70008 0xc0000054 # ST

  I notice it especially strongly in the relatively flat dark area in the
  top left.  Closer than about 18" I can see a noticeable checkerboard
  pattern with plain spatial dithering.  ST smooths that out; I can still
  tell that it's lacking color precision, but it's not offensive.
