This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/probe-helper: Cancel previous job before starting new one to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-probe-helper-cancel-previous-job-before-starting.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit ea28172af4d31017c774e3c4d1b255c0d482d25a Author: Dom Cobley <popcornmix@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jan 27 16:40:52 2023 +0100 drm/probe-helper: Cancel previous job before starting new one [ Upstream commit a8e47884f1906cd7440fafa056adc8817568e73e ] Currently we schedule a call to output_poll_execute from drm_kms_helper_poll_enable for 10s in future. Later we try to replace that in drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes with a 0s schedule with delayed_event set. But as there is already a job in the queue this fails, and the immediate job we wanted with delayed_event set doesn't occur until 10s later. And that call acts as if connector state has changed, reprobing modes. This has a side effect of waking up a display that has been blanked. Make sure we cancel the old job before submitting the immediate one.
