[PATCH v2 0/2] Introduce crtc->mode_valid() callback

[PATCH v2 0/2] Introduce crtc->mode_valid() callback

[Jose Abreu]

This patchset introduces a new callback for crtc, called mode_valid()
that is responsible to limit the number of probbed modes. Just like
connector->mode_valid(), this new callback is called at mode probbing
stage so that we can validate the mode.

This is specially useful because arcpgu crtc is responsible to set a
clock value in the commit() stage but unfortunatelly this clock does
not support all the needed ranges. This way we can restrict the number
of modes that are handed to userspace, so that we dont hand a mode
that will fail the commit() stage.

I guess this can also happen for other drivers so we introduce the
callback in the core.

The behaviour remains the same for crtcs that don't have the callback.
Also, for a given set of crtcs that can be bound to the connector, if
at least one can display the mode then the mode will be probbed.

For more info about why this is needed in arcpgu, please refer here [1].

[PATCH v2 1/2] drm: Introduce crtc->mode_valid() callback

[Jose Abreu]

Some crtc's may have restrictions in the mode they can display. In
this patch a new callback (crtc->mode_valid()) is introduced that
is called at the same stage of connector->mode_valid() callback.

This shall be implemented if the crtc has some sort of restriction
so that we don't probe modes that will fail in the commit() stage.
For example: A given crtc may be responsible to set a clock value.
If the clock can not produce all the values for the available
modes then this callback can be used to restrict the number of
probbed modes to only the ones that can be displayed.

If the crtc does not implement the callback then the behaviour will
remain the same. Also, for a given set of crtcs that can be bound to
the connector, if at least one can display the mode then the mode
will be probbed.

[PATCH v2 2/2] drm: arcpgu: Use crtc->mode_valid() callback

[Jose Abreu]

Now that we have a callback to check if crtc supports a given mode
we can use it in arcpgu so that we restrict the number of probbed
modes to the ones we can actually display.

This is specially useful because arcpgu crtc is responsible to set
a clock value in the commit() stage but unfortunatelly this clock
does not support all the needed ranges.

I think this comment is misleading because here ret is not alwyas MODE_OK.
It will be the return value from crtc_func->mode_valid which could also
be MODE_NOCLOCK
