[PATCH 4.9 56/63] drm/i915: Fix not finding the VBT when it overlaps with OPREGION_ASLE_EXT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 998d75730b40afc218c059d811869abe9676b305 upstream.

If there is no OPREGION_ASLE_EXT then a VBT stored in mailbox #4 may
use the ASLE_EXT parts of the opregion. Adjust the vbt_size calculation
for a vbt in mailbox #4 for this.

This fixes the driver not finding the VBT on a jumper ezpad mini3
cherrytrail tablet and on a ACER SW5_017 machine.
