In function prepare_signaling, crtc check (c==0) is not related
with the next new_connector circle, maybe we can put the crtc
check just after the crtc circle and before new_connector circle.
This change is to make the code to run a bit first.

I'm a bit confused here with your explanation, I'm not understanding why
you do this change ... Can you pls elaborate? Maybe give an example or
something of the problem this patch solves, that often helps.
Thanks, Daniel

Hi:
This change is to make the function return error earlier when run into the error branch:
if (c == 0 && (arg->flags & DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_EVENT))
return -EINVAL;
There two main FOR circles in this function, and the second FOR circle never changes the if condition("(c == 0 && (arg->flags & DRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_EVENT))") variable`s value, like c & arg->flags.
So I think maybe we can check this condition before the second for circle, and return the error earlier when run into this error branch.

Ah ok. Makes sense, but this case is only ever hit for bad userspace that
got something wrong, so I'm not sure we should optimize for this. And with
this we kinda bury this fairly important check in the middle, so I don't
think it improves code readability.
