    drm/nouveau/kms/nv50-: Fix clock checking algorithm in nv50_dp_mode_valid() · d7787cc0
    Lyude Paul authored
    While I thought I had this correct (since it actually did reject modes
    like I expected during testing), Ville Syrjala from Intel pointed out
    that the logic here isn't correct. max_clock refers to the max data rate
    supported by the DP encoder. So, limiting it to the output of ds_clock (which
    refers to the maximum dotclock of the downstream DP device) doesn't make any
    sense. Additionally, since we're using the connector's bpc as the canonical BPC
    we should use this in mode_valid until we support dynamically setting the bpp
    based on bandwidth constraints.

    For more info.
    
    So, let's rewrite this using Ville's advice.
    
    v2:
    * Ville pointed out I mixed up the dotclock and the link rate. So fix that...
    * ...and also rename all the variables in this function to be more appropriately
      labeled so I stop mixing them up.
    * Reuse the bpp from the connector for now until we have dynamic bpp selection.
    * Use use DIV_ROUND_UP for calculating the mode rate like i915 does, which we
      should also have been doing from the start
