HPD state machine in msm dp display driver manages the state transitions
between various HPD events and the expected state of driver to make sure
both match up.
Although originally done with the intent of managing userspace interactions
and interactions with compliance equipment, over period of time,
changes to this piece of code has become quite difficult to manage.
Although, unwinding this logic will take some time and will be spread over
various changes, to start things, this series tries to get rid of the
ST_DISPLAY_OFF state as firstly, its really not an hpd state but a state
of the display overall. Coupled with this, there are quite a few checks
in the current code, the origins of which need to be re-visited OR are unclear
which seem unlikely or redundant. With DP controller on newer chipsets supporting
multiple streams, this has become increasingly difficult to work with.
This series removes the redundant state checks and simplifies the logic as an
attempt to get rid of this ST_DISPLAY_OFF state.
Note: This series has been tested with sa8775p and sc7180 devices with multiple
monitors and also multiple dongles with no noticeable regressions.
Both of these devices use native DP PHY though. Hence, if this series can
be verified on some devices with USBC-DP combo PHY with the help of the other
developers, that will be great.
