mainlining shenanigans
97028037a3
So, unfortunately I recently made the discovery that in the upstream kernel, the only reason that amdgpu is not currently suffering from issues with runtime PM putting the GPU into suspend while it's driving displays is due to the fact that on most prime systems, we have sound devices associated with the GPU that hold their own runtime PM ref for the GPU. What this means however, is that in the event that there isn't any kind of sound device active (which can easily be reproduced by building a kernel with sound drivers disabled), the GPU will fall asleep even when there's displays active. This appears to be in part due to the fact that amdgpu has not actually ever relied on it's rpm_idle() function to be the only thing keeping it running, and normally grabs it's own power references whenever there are displays active (as can be seen with the original pre-DC codepath in amdgpu_display_crtc_set_config() in amdgpu_display.c). This means it's very likely that this bug was introduced during the switch over the DC. So to fix this, we start grabbing runtime PM references every time we enable a previously disabled CRTC in atomic_commit_tail(). This appears to be the correct solution, as it matches up with what i915 does in i915/intel_runtime_pm.c. The one sideaffect of this is that we ignore the variable that the pre-DC code used to use for tracking when it needed runtime PM refs, adev->have_disp_power_ref. This is mainly because there's no way for a driver to tell whether or not all of it's CRTCs are enabled or disabled when we've begun committing an atomic state, as there may be CRTC commits happening in parallel that aren't contained within the atomic state being committed. So, it's safer to just get/put a reference for each CRTC being enabled or disabled in the new atomic state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
