For KMS drivers, replace the IRQ check in VBLANK ioctls with a check for
vblank support. IRQs might be enabled wthout vblanking being supported.

This change also removes the DRM framework's only dependency on IRQ state
for non-legacy drivers. For legacy drivers with userspace modesetting,
the original test remains in drm_wait_vblank_ioctl().

v2:
	* keep the old test for legacy drivers in
	  drm_wait_vblank_ioctl() (Daniel)

For a system call that is used quite a lot by userspace we have increased the code size
in a noticeable way. Can we not cache it privately?

I'm not quite sure that I understand your concern. The additionally called functions are trivial one-liners; probably inlined anyway.

However, irq_enabled is only relevant for legacy drivers and will eventually disappear behind CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY. We can rewrite the test like this:

ifdef CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY
  if (unlikely(check_feature(dev, DRIVER_LEGACY))) {
    if (!irq_enabled)
      return;
  } else
#endif
  {
    if (!has_vblank_support(dev))
      return;
  }

As CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY is most likely disabled on concurrent systems, we'd get a single test for the modern drivers. If DRM_LEGACYis on, the compiler at least knows that the else branch is preferred.

Best regards
Thomas
