Hi Shuduo-
Yes, I could backport and apply 2124b72 "drm/i915: don't disable the
power well yet" to 3.8-stable, but that commit says:
This fixes problems caused by the following commit:
commit d6dd9eb1d96d2b7345fe4664066c2b7ed86da898
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue Jan 29 16:35:20 2013 -0200
drm/i915: dynamic Haswell display power well support
But 3.8-stable doesn't include d6dd9eb. Is 2124b72 actually necessary
in 3.8? (Or at least, would it actually be useful?)
Thanks,
-Kamal
