[ Upstream commit bd64240dc88caaf7b96dd869f36f165f51b52039 ]

The name of the function __drm_fb_helper_initial_config_and_unlock() and
also the comment above that function make it clear that all code paths
in this function should unlock fb_helper-&gt;lock before returning. Add a
mutex_unlock() call in the only code path where it is missing. This has
been detected by the Clang thread-safety analyzer.

During GPU reset, VBlank interrupts are disabled which causes
drm_fb_helper_fb_dirty() to wait for VBlank timeout. This will create
call traces like (seen on an RX7900 series dGPU):

Cancel pending damage work synchronously before console_lock() to ensure
any in-flight framebuffer damage operations complete before suspension.

Also check for FBINFO_STATE_RUNNING in drm_fb_helper_damage_work() to
avoid executing damage work if it is rescheduled while the device is suspended.

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie:
 "There was a rather late merge of a new color pipeline feature, that
  some userspace projects are blocked on, and has seen a lot of work in
  amdgpu. This should have seen some time in -next. There is additional
  support for this for Intel, that if it arrives in the next day or two
  I'll pass it on in another pull request and you can decide if you want
  to take it.

  Highlights:
   - Arm Ethos NPU accelerator driver
   - new DRM color pipeline support
   - amdgpu will now run discrete SI/CIK cards instead of radeon, which
     enables vulkan support in userspace
   - msm gets gen8 gpu support

<title>drm/fbdev-helper: Remove drm_fb_helper_debug_enter/_leave()</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove the debug_enter/debug_leave helpers, as there are no DRM
drivers supporting debugging with kgdb. Remove code to keep track
of existing fbdev-emulation state. None of this required any longer.

Also remove mode_set_base_atomic from struct drm_crtc_helper_funcs,
which has no callers or implementations.

<content type='text'>
Move the calls to drm_fb_helper_alloc_info() from drivers into a
single place in fbdev helpers. Allocates struct fb_info for a new
framebuffer device. Then call drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe() to
create an fbdev screen buffer. Also release the instance on errors
by calling drm_fb_helper_release_info().

Simplifies the code and fixes the error cleanup for some of the
drivers.

Regular release of the struct fb_info instance still happens in
drm_fb_helper_fini() as before.

v2:
- remove error rollback in driver implementations (kernel test robot)
- initialize info in TTM implementation (kernel test robot)

<title>drm, fbcon, vga_switcheroo: Avoid race condition in fbcon setup</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eb76d0f5553575599561010f24c277cc5b31d003</id>
<content type='text'>
Protect vga_switcheroo_client_fb_set() with console lock. Avoids OOB
access in fbcon_remap_all(). Without holding the console lock the call
races with switching outputs.

VGA switcheroo calls fbcon_remap_all() when switching clients. The fbcon
function uses struct fb_info.node, which is set by register_framebuffer().
As the fb-helper code currently sets up VGA switcheroo before registering
the framebuffer, the value of node is -1 and therefore not a legal value.
For example, fbcon uses the value within set_con2fb_map() [1] as an index
into an array.

Moving vga_switcheroo_client_fb_set() after register_framebuffer() can
result in VGA switching that does not switch fbcon correctly.

Therefore move vga_switcheroo_client_fb_set() under fbcon_fb_registered(),
which already holds the console lock. Fbdev calls fbcon_fb_registered()
from within register_framebuffer(). Serializes the helper with VGA
switcheroo's call to fbcon_remap_all().

Although vga_switcheroo_client_fb_set() takes an instance of struct fb_info
as parameter, it really only needs the contained fbcon state. Moving the
call to fbcon initialization is therefore cleaner than before. Only amdgpu,
i915, nouveau and radeon support vga_switcheroo. For all other drivers,
this change does nothing.

<title>drm/client: Support emergency restore via sysrq for all clients</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6915190a50e8f7cf13dcbe534b02845be533b60a</id>
<content type='text'>
Move the sysrq functionality from DRM fbdev helpers to the DRM device
and in-kernel clients, so that it becomes available on all clients.

DRM fbdev helpers support emergency restoration of the console output
via a special key combination. Press SysRq+v to replace the current
compositor with the kernel's output on the framebuffer console. This
allows users to see the log messages during system emergencies.

By moving the functionality from fbdev helpers to the DRM device, any
in-kernel client can serve as emergency output. This can be used to
bring up drm_log, for example.

Each DRM device registers itself to the list of possible sysrq handlers.
On receiving SysRq+v, the DRM core goes over all registered devices and
restores an in-kernel DRM client for each of them.

See Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst on how to invoke SysRq. Switch
VTs to bring back the user-space compositor.

v2:
- declare placeholders as 'static inline' (kernel test robot)
- fix grammar in commit description

<title>drm/client: Pass force parameter to client restore</title>

<id>urn:sha1:943240d342f148896733eb6c7b223a08aa1f520a</id>
<content type='text'>
Add force parameter to client restore and pass value through the
layers. The only currently used value is false.

If force is true, the client should restore its display even if it
does not hold the DRM master lock. This is be required for emergency
output, such as sysrq.

While at it, inline drm_fb_helper_lastclose(), which is a trivial
wrapper around drm_fb_helper_restore_fbdev_mode_unlocked().
