Subject: drm/i915: Fixup Oops in the pipe config computation

From: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>

commit b6c5164d7bf624f3e1b750787ddb983150c5117c upstream.

Yet again our current confusion between doing the modeset globally,
but only having the new parameters for one crtc at a time.

So that intel_set_mode essentially already does a global modeset:
intel_modeset_affected_pipes compares the current state with where we
want to go to (which is carefully set up by intel_crtc_set_config) and
then goes through the modeset sequence for any crtc which needs
updating.

Now the issue is that the actual interface with the remaining code
still only works on one crtc, and so we only pass in one fb and one
mode. In intel_set_mode we also only compute one intel_crtc_config
(which should be the one for the crtc we're doing a modeset on).

The reason for that mismatch is twofold:
- We want to eventually do all modeset as global state changes, so
it's just infrastructure prep.
- But even the old semantics can change more than one crtc when you
e.g. move a connector from crtc A to crtc B, then both crtc A and B
need to be updated. Usually that means one pipe is disabled and the
other enabled. This is also the reason why the hack doesn't touch the
disable_pipes mask.

Now hilarity ensued in our kms config restore paths when we actually
try to do a modeset on all crtcs: If the first crtc should be off and
the second should be on, then the call on the first crtc will notice
that the 2nd one should be switched on and so tries to compute the
pipe_config. But due to a lack of passed-in fb (crtc 1 should be off
after all) it only results in tears.

This case is ridiculously easy to hit on gen2/3 where the lvds output
is restricted to pipe B. Note that before the pipe_config bpp rework
gen2/3 didn't care really about the fb->depth, so this is a regression
brought to light with

    drm/i915: precompute pipe bpp before touching the hw

But apparently Ajax also managed to blow up pch platforms, probably
with some randomized configs, and pch platforms trip up over the lack
of an fb even in the old code. So this actually goes back to the first
introduction of the new modeset restore code in

    drm/i915: force restore on lid open

Fix this mess by now by justing shunting all the cool new global
modeset logic in intel_modeset_affected_pipes.

v2: Improve commit message and clean up all the comments in
intel_modeset_affected_pipes - since the introduction of the modeset
restore code they've been a bit outdated.
