Subject: drm/fsl-dcu: use flat regmap cache
From: Stefan Agner <stefan@xxxxxxxx>
commit ce492b3b8f99cf9d2f807ec22d8805c996a09503 upstream.
Using flat regmap cache instead of RB-tree to avoid the following
lockdep warning on driver load:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:2755 lockdep_trace_alloc+0x15c/0x160()
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(irqs_disabled_flags(flags))
The RB-tree regmap cache needs to allocate new space on first
writes. However, allocations in an atomic context (e.g. when a
spinlock is held) are not allowed. The function regmap_write
calls map->lock, which acquires a spinlock in the fast_io case.
Since the FSL DCU driver uses MMIO, the regmap bus of type
regmap_mmio is being used which has fast_io set to true.
Use flat regmap cache and specify max register to be large
enouth to cover all registers available in LS1021a and Vybrids
register space.
