drm/i915: Nuke the LVDS lid notifier
We broke the LVDS notifier resume thing in (presumably) commit e2c8b870 ("drm/i915: Use atomic helpers for suspend, v2.") as we no longer duplicate the current state in the LVDS notifier and thus we never resume it properly either. Instead of trying to fix it again let's just kill off the lid notifier entirely. None of the machines tested thus far have apparently needed it. Originally the lid notifier was added to work around cases where the VBIOS was clobbering some of the hardware state behind the driver's back, mostly on Thinkpads. We now have a few report of Thinkpads working just fine without the notifier. So maybe it was misdiagnosed originally, or something else has changed (ACPI video stuff perhaps?). If we do end up finding a machine where the VBIOS is still causing problems I would suggest that we first try setting various bits in the VBIOS scratch registers. There are several to choose from that may instruct the VBIOS to steer clear. With the notifier gone we'll also stop looking at the panel status in ->detect(). v2: Nuke enum modeset_restore (Rodrigo) Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Wolfgang Draxinger <wdraxinger.maillist@draxit.de> Cc: Vito Caputo <vcaputo@pengaru.com> Cc: kitsunyan <kitsunyan@airmail.cc> Cc: Joonas Saarinen <jza@saunalahti.fi> Tested-by: Vito Caputo <vcaputo@pengaru.com> # Thinkapd X61s Tested-by: kitsunyan <kitsunyan@airmail.cc> # ThinkPad X200 Tested-by: Joonas Saarinen <jza@saunalahti.fi> # Fujitsu Siemens U9210 Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105902 References: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2018-June/169315.html References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21230 Fixes: e2c8b870 ("drm/i915: Use atomic helpers for suspend, v2.")
