It still doesn't work for me. I still get "Input not supported" from my
monitor. It is a DVI monitor connected via a HDMI adapter, but EDID probing
works and, as I noted previously, the HDMI/LCDC can be made to work (and
obviously did work in the 3.18 kernel).
I used my usual recipe for kernel compilation:
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make ci20_defconfig
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make menuconfig
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make -j8 uImage
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make -j8 modules
ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- make -j8 dtbs
sudo sh -c 'INSTALL_MOD_PATH=nn ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- \
make modules_install'
sudo sh -c 'INSTALL_PATH=nn/boot ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux-gnu- \
make dtbs_install'
sudo cp arch/mips/boot/uImage nn/boot/
This was with a snapshot archive made from the following changeset:
b911b4883bfe4f7fa753ac2ff42b25fa6b3055e2
I downloaded it from here:
https://gitlab.collabora.com/linux/0day/-/tree/jz4780-drm-hdmi-v5.9-rc1
(I was going to clone the repository late last night, but it was taking a long
time and I also didn't want to clone everything yet again.)

Before trying this new branch, I did try and tidy up the branch I had been
working on. I didn't notice all the changes and the new ingenic-drm-drv.c
file, having assumed that not much would have changed in the DRM driver.
Nevertheless, my attempts at integrating the different branches can be found
in the paulb-jz4780-ci20-hdmi-5.9-rc1 branch, mentioned earlier.
It would be nice to reconcile the JZ4780 support with the evolving upstream
support, accommodating the extended descriptors and the extra register usage.

P.S. I noticed a few problems with the 5.9-rc1 branches such as powering down
not actually removing the power and, in my own branch, networking not working
reliably (or maybe even at all), with the tedious progress indicator never
terminating in the boot sequence. So, once again, it is another case of half a
step forwards and about three steps back.
