[PATCH] drm/i915: Resume DP MST before doing any kind of modesetting

From: Lyude
Date: Tue Feb 23 2016 - 17:13:25 EST


As it turns out, resuming DP MST is racey since we don't make sure MST
is ready before we start modesetting, it just usually happens to be
ready in time. This isn't the case on all systems, particularly a
ThinkPad T560 with displays connected through the dock. On these
systems, resuming the laptop while connected to the dock usually results
in blank monitors. Making sure MST is ready before doing any kind of
modesetting fixes this issue.

We originally changed the resume order in

commit e7d6f7d70829 ("drm/i915: resume MST after reading back hw state")

to fix a ton of WARN_ON's after resume, but this doesn't seem to be an
issue now anyhow.
