[PATCH 4.11 056/197] drm/nouveau/kms/nv50: skip core channel cursor update on position-only changes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue May 23 2017 - 16:14:05 EST


4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e6db95799b1b870aae15682a6d0898df9e9dfb38 upstream.

The DRM core used to only call prepare_fb/cleanup_fb() when a plane's
framebuffer changed, which achieved the desired effect.

It's apparently now up to the driver to decide on its own.
