From: =?UTF-8?q?Ville=20Syrj=C3=A4l=C3=A4?= ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2019 19:16:57 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Do not create a new max_bpc prop for MST connectors MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

We're not allowed to create new properties after device registration so for MST connectors we need to either create the max_bpc property earlier, or we reuse one we already have. Let's do the latter apporach since the corresponding SST connector already has the prop and its min/max are correct also for the MST connector.

The problem was highlighted by commit 4f5368b5541a ("drm/kms: Catch mode_object lifetime errors") which results in the following spew: [ 1330.878941] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1554 at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mode_object.c:45 __drm_mode_object_add+0xa0/0xb0 [drm] ...
