From a9fb41b5def8e1e0103d5fd1453787993587281e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Zimmermann tzimmermann@suse.de Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 09:35:53 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] drm/ast: Clear preserved bits from register output value
Preserve the I/O register bits in __ast_write8_i_masked() as specified by preserve_mask. Accidentally OR-ing the output value into these will overwrite the register's previous settings.
Fixes display output on the AST2300, where the screen can go blank at boot. The driver's original commit 312fec1405dd ("drm: Initial KMS driver for AST (ASpeed Technologies) 2000 series (v2)") already added the broken code. Commit 6f719373b943 ("drm/ast: Blank with VGACR17 sync enable, always clear VGACRB6 sync off") triggered the bug.
