Don't you need a drm_crtc_vblank_on() call in the enable function?

For me, the image shift was 100% reproducable.  With the above patch
and a call to drm_crtc_vblank_on() in the enable path, it seems to
behave correctly - I can alternately switch between 1920x1080 and
1280x1024 and it behaves correctly.  Indeed, my debug prints show that
the right thing is happening wrt disabling the controller:

That's more of a generic DRM issue - the CRTC layer doesn't get a
look-in when a connector parses the modes supplied from the display,
so there's no real way for the CRTC layer to apply any kind of
limitations to the available modes, except when a mode is attempted
to be set.

I don't want to see an "interlace" DT property introduced for the
TDA998x, because that's the wrong approach - it would be adding a
property for the needs of the implementation, and not a description
of the hardware.

I guess if you've tried and failed to reproduce it, there is something
very specific to my setup which I can't describe.

All I know is that it's a HBI0282B, which thanks to Sudeep's efforts
(he spent _all_ of last Tuesday logged in to one of my systems trying
to upgrade the firmware) is now running the Linaro 16.10 firmware.
Sudeep says that my hardware is a very early revision which went out
the door without being properly calibrated.

Whether that has any bearing on the reproducability of this or not, I've
no idea.

If you want to see the boot messages, head to my autobuilder status page
and look at the juno-kvm entries - they contain all the boot messages
from initial power up of the juno.  I'll send you a link in private
mail so googlebot doesn't end up hammering on it after it expires.
