[PATCH 35/37] drm_fb_helper: Preserve capability to use atomic kms

From: Jason Wessel
Date: Wed Dec 23 2009 - 16:43:52 EST


Commit 5349ef3127c77075ff70b2014f17ae0fbcaaf199 changed logic of when
a pixclock was valid vs invalid.

The atomic kernel mode setting used by the kernel debugger relied upon
the drm_fb_helper_check_var() to always return -EINVAL. Until a
better solution exists, this behavior will be restored.
