Didn't look at the spec. Is there a 1:1 mapping/routing with the two PPS
and backlight PWM?

Does this hold for Geminilake too, as your change impacts that as well?

Drop this.

Drop this. Even I can't access this.

So the existing code around here looks a bit convoluted, not least
because now pretty much all PPS access first does

 - intel_pps_get_registers(), which calls
 - bxt_power_sequencer_idx(), which calls
 - intel_dp_init_panel_power_sequencer_registers(), which calls
 - intel_pps_get_registers()...

With your change, for controller == 1 and pps_reset == true, the first
time the registers are needed, we'll initialize the correct controller 1
registers, but controller 0 registers are returned. From there on, we'll
keep returning controller 1 registers until pps_reset is set to true
again.

Cc: Imre as author of commits 78597996370c ("drm/i915/bxt: Fix PPS lost
state after suspend breaking eDP link training") and 8e8232d51878
("drm/i915: Deduplicate PPS register retrieval") which I think create
the loop.

Jani.
