Why FIXME here? You just fixed that issue, feels like should just be a
normal comment. I'd just say
/* no DPMS for virtual drivers, it would close the window, making
* the guest inaccesible */

Ok, I've changed my plans for properties and DPMS a bit for atomic
drivers, and the ->dpms hook will be gone really soon. There's also the
problem that rejecting DPMS through the legacy interface, but allowing it
through the atomic interface isn't good api (and yes we have igts to check
for that).
I think it'd be better to reject this properly in the atomic_check phase
in the crtc_helper_funcs->atomic_check function, with something like this:
if (crtc->state->enable && !crtc->state->active)
return -EINVAL;
That should result in an -EINVAL for any caller who tries to update the
DPMS property. Which is important, since with the new atomic fbdev helper
code, fbdev does directly call into the atomic code and entirely bypasses
the ->dpms hook (that part is merged already, and why you need to rebase
patch 1).
That would also make sure that we don't return -EINVAL and still shut down
the screen (atomic does that for you, there's no difference between DPMS
off and fully disabling it).
Sorry that I'm dragging you all over with this for yet another respin :-/
Thanks, Daniel
