Hans de Goede 1ca002adce drm/i915/dsi: Remove readback of panel orientation on BYT / CHT
Commit 82daca2975 ("drm/i915: Add "panel orientation" property to the
panel connector, v6.") uses hardware state readback to determine if the
GOP is rotating the image by 180 degrees to compensate for upside-down
mounted panels.

When I wrote that commit I tried to find the VBT bits the GOP used to
decide to rotate the image, but I could not find them. Back then I only
looked at the rotation bits in struct mipi_config and these read 0 on
the 1 BYT device I have with an upside-down mounted panel
(a GP-electronic T701 tablet). While working on a similar problem on a
BYT device with an eDP panel I noticed that the new
intel_dsi_get_panel_orientation() helper which gets used on newer
SoCs (Apollo-Lake, etc.) checks the rotate_180 bit in the
BDB_GENERAL_FEATURES VBT block.

I've checked and this bit indeed is set on the GP-electronic T701 tablet,
so using the generic intel_dsi_get_panel_orientation() helper there does
the right thing without needing any extra readback of hw state.

This commit removes the special handling of the panel orientation for
DSI panels on BYT/CHT devices, bringing the handling in line with the
handling of DSI panels on other devices.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
