Hi Thomas,

Do you have other suggestion for this patch??

Please kindly advise.

Hi Thomas,

I think DP501 is OK. It doesn't use ioregs in ast_dp501_read_edid().

Add lock protection in DP's edid access to avoid this problem.

Thanks for the patch. I thought I fixed this issue already, but that apparently only happened for SIL164 and VGA.

What about ast_dp501_connector_helper_get_modes()? Does it require the locking as well?

We've meanwhile renamed ast_private to ast_device. Could you please provide an updated patch for the drm-misc-next tree?
