drm/i915: rip out unnecessary calls to drm_mode_set_crtcinfo
Our handling of the crtc timing computation has been nicely cargo-culted with calls to drm_mode_set_crtcinfo sprinkled all over the place. But with commit f9bef081 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Sun Apr 15 19:53:19 2012 +0200 drm/i915: don't clobber the special upscaling lvds timings and commit ca9bfa7e Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Sat Jan 28 14:49:20 2012 +0100 drm/i915: fixup interlaced vertical timings confusion, part 1 we now only set the crtc timing fields in the encoder->mode_fixup (lvds only) and in crtc->mode_fixup (for everyone else). And since commit 75c13993 Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Sat Jan 28 23:48:46 2012 +0100 drm/i915: fixup overlay checks for interlaced modes the only places we actually need the crtc timings is in the mode_set function. I guess the idea of the drm core is that every time it creates a drm mode, it also sets the timings. But afaics it never uses them, safe for the precise vblank timestamp code (but that can only run on active modes, i.e. after our mode_fixup functions have been called). The problem is that drm core always sets CRTC_INTERLACE_HALVE_V, so the timings are pretty much bogus for us anyway (at least with interlaced support). So I guess it's the drivers job that every active modes needs to have crtc timings that suits it, and with these patches we should have that. drm core doesn't seem to care about modes that just get passed around. Hence we can now safely rip out all the remaining calls to set_crtcinfo left in the driver and clean up this confusion.
