In certain CPU stress conditions, there can be a delay in scheduling commit
work and it was observed that PSR commit from a different work queue
was
scheduled. Avoid these commits as display is already in PSR mode.

EINVAL here means that atomic_check will fail if both old and new
states are in SR mode. For example, there might be a mode set for
another CRTC (while keeping this one in SR mode). I don't think this
is correct. We should skip/shortcut the commit, that's true. But I
doubt that returning an error here is a proper way to do this. Please
correct me if I'm wrong.

If there is a modeset on same crtc with a different connector. The new_crtc_state will not have self_refresh_active set.
Self_refresh_active is set from the helper library, which will duplicate the old_state and just adds self_refresh_active to true and active to false.
so we can be confident that if we are checking for self_refresh_active status then it should be coming from the library call.

Also the EINVAL is returned to the self_refresh library API and the function will be retired.

Maybe I misunderstand you here. However, in this way EINVAL is
returned to drm_atomic_check_only() and not to the SR code.

Unless anybody objects, I'm going to drop this patch now. The issue should be solved in the framework itself.


And self_refresh_active is cleared on every commit : https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_state_helper.c#n158

And this means that this check will not trigger at all, if I'm not
mistaken. You've added code to msm_atomic_check(), so
drm_self_refresh_helper_alter_state() was not called (yet) and thus
new_crtc_state->self_refresh_active is set to false, fresh after
crtc's duplicate_state.
