[ Upstream commit ba110db8e1bc206c13fd7d985e79b033f53bfdea ]

Move the DRM buddy allocator one level up so that it can be used by GPU
drivers (example, nova-core) that have usecases other than DRM (such as
VFIO vGPU support). Modify the API, structures and Kconfigs to use
"gpu_buddy" terminology. Adapt the drivers and tests to use the new API.

The commit cannot be split due to bisectability, however no functional
change is intended. Verified by running K-UNIT tests and build tested
various configurations.

<title>drm/amd/display: Force PWM backlight on Lenovo Legion 5 15ARH05</title>

commit bad177fa75e607e396cd57daaaed881450d7a471 upstream.

The Lenovo Legion 5 15ARH05 (Renoir) ships a BOE 0x08DF eDP panel that
advertises AUX/DPCD backlight control, so amdgpu's automatic detection
(amdgpu_backlight == -1) selects AUX. On this panel the AUX backlight
path has no effect: brightness writes are accepted but the panel level
never changes, the display is stuck at a fixed brightness and
max_brightness is reported as a bogus 511000. As a result neither the
desktop brightness slider nor the brightness hotkeys do anything.

Forcing PWM backlight (amdgpu.backlight=0) restores working control:
max_brightness becomes 65535 and the level tracks writes. This has long
been applied by users as a manual kernel-parameter workaround.

Extend the generic panel backlight quirk with a force_pwm flag, add an
entry for the Legion 5 15ARH05 / BOE 0x08DF panel, and have amdgpu
disable AUX backlight (use PWM) when the quirk matches and the user
lets the driver auto-select the backlight type.

<title>drm/displayid: fix Tiled Display Topology ID size</title>

commit 90c0486a82e27393f9eaf3bb350f51a0bd38cb6b upstream.

The Tiled Display Topology ID of a DisplayID Tiled Display Topology Data
Block consists of three fields:

- Tiled Display Manufacturer/Vendor ID Field (3 bytes)
- Tiled Display Product ID Code Field (2 bytes)
- Tiled Display Serial Number Field (4 bytes)

i.e. a total of 9 bytes, not 8.

The DisplayID Tiled Display Topology ID is used as the tile group
identifier.

Update both struct displayid_tiled_block topology_id member and struct
drm_tile_group group_data member to full 9 bytes.

The group data was missing the last byte of the serial number. I don't
know whether there are known bug reports that might be linked to this,
but it's plausible the last byte could be the differentiating part for
the tile groups, and fewer tile groups might have been created than
intended.

Fixes: b49b55bd4fba ("drm/displayid: add displayid defines and edid extension (v2)")
Fixes: 138f9ebb9755 ("drm: add tile_group support. (v3)")

Implement atomic_flush, atomic_enable and atomic_disable of struct
drm_crtc_helper_funcs for vblank handling. Driver with no further
requirements can use these functions instead of adding their own.
Also simplifies the use of vblank timers.

The code has been adopted from vkms, which added the funtionality
in commit 3a0709928b17 ("drm/vkms: Add vblank events simulated by

[ Upstream commit 74afeb8128502a529041a2566febd26053a7be11 ]

The vblank timer simulates a vblank interrupt for hardware without
support. Rate-limits the display update frequency.

DRM drivers for hardware without vblank support apply display updates
ASAP. A vblank event informs DRM clients of the completed update.
Userspace compositors immediately schedule the next update, which
creates significant load on virtualization outputs. Display updates
are usually fast on virtualization outputs, as their framebuffers are
in regular system memory and there's no hardware vblank interrupt to
throttle the update rate.

The vblank timer is a HR timer that signals the vblank in software.
It limits the update frequency of a DRM driver similar to a hardware
vblank interrupt. The timer is not synchronized to the actual vblank
interval of the display.

The code has been adopted from vkms, which added the funtionality
in commit 3a0709928b17 ("drm/vkms: Add vblank events simulated by
hrtimers").

The new implementation is part of the existing vblank support,
which sets up the timer automatically. Drivers only have to start
and cancel the vblank timer as part of enabling and disabling the
CRTC. The new vblank helper library provides callbacks for struct
drm_crtc_funcs.

The standard way for handling vblank is to call drm_crtc_handle_vblank().
Drivers that require additional processing, such as vkms, can init
handle_vblank_timeout in struct drm_crtc_helper_funcs to refer to
their timeout handler.

There's a possible deadlock between drm_crtc_handle_vblank() and
hrtimer_cancel(). [1] The implementation avoids to call hrtimer_cancel()
directly and instead signals to the timer function to not restart
itself.

v4:
- fix possible race condition between timeout and atomic commit (Michael)
v3:
- avoid deadlock when cancelling timer (Ville, Lyude)
v2:
- implement vblank timer entirely in vblank helpers
- downgrade overrun warning to debug
- fix docs

[ Upstream commit 607d07d8cc0b835a8701259f08a03dc149b79b4f ]

Acquire and release the GEM object's reservation lock around calls
to the object's madvide operation. The tests use
drm_gem_shmem_madvise_locked(), which led to errors such as show below.

Acquire and release the GEM object's reservation lock around vmap and
vunmap operations. The tests use vmap_locked, which led to errors such
as show below.

[ Upstream commit 936cae9254e55a39aeaa0c156a764d22f319338b ]

Fix kernel-doc warnings on struct intel_lb_component_ops:

Warning: include/drm/intel/intel_lb_mei_interface.h:55 Incorrect use of
  kernel-doc format: * push_payload - Sends a payload to the
  authentication firmware

And a bunch more. There isn't really support for documenting function
pointer struct members in kernel-doc, but at least reference the member
properly.
