Subject: [PATCH v3 00/15] Improvements and fixes for mxsfb DRM driver

This patch-set improves the use of eLCDIF block on iMX 8 SoCs (like 8MQ, 8MM
and 8QXP). Following, are the new features added and fixes from this
patch-set:

1. Add support for drm_bridge
On 8MQ and 8MM, the LCDIF block is not directly connected to a parallel
display connector, where an LCD panel can be attached, but instead it is
connected to DSI controller. Since this DSI stands between the display
controller (eLCDIF) and the physical connector, the DSI can be implemented
as a DRM bridge. So, in order to be able to connect the mxsfb driver to
the DSI driver, the support for a drm_bridge was needed in mxsfb DRM
driver (the actual driver for the eLCDIF block).

2. Add support for additional pixel formats
Some of the pixel formats needed by Android were not implemented in this
driver, but they were actually supported. So, add support for them.

3. Add support for horizontal stride
Having support for horizontal stride allows the use of eLCDIF with a GPU
(for example) that can only output resolution sizes multiple of a power of
8. For example, 1080 is not a power of 16, so in order to support 1920x1080
output from GPUs that can produce linear buffers only in sizes multiple to 16,
this feature is needed.

3. Few minor features and bug-fixing
The addition of max-res DT property was actually needed in order to limit
the bandwidth usage of the eLCDIF block. This is need on systems where
multiple display controllers are presend and the memory bandwidth is not
enough to handle all of them at maximum capacity (like it is the case on
8MQ, where there are two display controllers: DCSS and eLCDIF).
The rest of the patches are bug-fixes.

v3:
- Removed the max-res property patches and added support for
max-memory-bandwidth property, as it is also implemented in other drivers
- Removed unnecessary drm_vblank_off in probe

v2:
- Collected Tested-by from Guido
- Split the first patch, which added more than one feature into relevant
patches, explaining each feature added
- Also split the second patch into more patches, to differentiate between
the feature itself (additional pixel formats support) and the cleanup
of the register definitions for a better representation (guido)
- Included a patch submitted by Guido, while he was testing my patch-set

Some of the registers, like LCDC_CTRL, CTRL2_OUTSTANDING_REQS and
CTRL1_RECOVERY_ON_UNDERFLOW needs to be properly cleared/initialized
for a better start and stop routine.

I've applied this whole series on top of my NWL work and it looks good
with a DSI panel. Applying the whole series also fixes an issue where
after unblank the output was sometimes shifted about half a screen width

This was on i.MX8MQ. I don't have hardware to test mxsfb on anything
else over here atm.

Thanks for testing! What SoC did you use? I think it would be good to
also give this a try on i.MX 7 or i.MX 6ULL before merging.

I did a quick test on imx6sx-sdb and it seems that [PATCH 07/15]
"drm/mxsfb: Fix the vblank events" causes a hang on boot, even without a
panel.

If I revert that particular patch it seems to be fine: the new pixel
formats seem to work in modetest (checked with sii,43wvf1g panel).

Thanks for feedback. I tested this and, indeed there are issues on 6SX
with this particular patch. It seems that there is a race-condition
caused by the vblank_on call in enable and IRQ routine. Since this is
not happening on any of i.MX8 SoC, I suspect the axi clock usage.
I think I will just remove this patch from the patch-set and handle
this case separately.
