From: Sean Paul <seanpaul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Currently the self refresh idle timer is a const set by the crtc. This
is fine if the self refresh entry/exit times are well-known for all
panels used on that crtc. However panels and workloads can vary quite a
bit, and a timeout which works well for one doesn't work well for
another.
In the extreme, if the timeout is too short we could get in a situation
where the self refresh exits are taking so long we queue up a self refresh
entry before the exit commit is even finished.
This patch changes the idle timeout to a moving average of the entry
times + a moving average of exit times + the crtc constant.
This patch was tested on rockchip, with a "kevin" CrOS panel the idle
delay averages out to about ~235ms (35 entry + 100 exit + 100 const). On
the same board, the "bob" panel idle delay lands around ~340ms (90 entry
+ 150 exit + 100 const).
