Ville Syrjälä 7bed8adcd9 drm/i915: Try to sanitize bogus DPLL state left over by broken SNB BIOSen
Certain SNB machines (eg. ASUS K53SV) seem to have a broken BIOS
which misprograms the hardware badly when encountering a suitably
high resolution display. The programmed pipe timings are somewhat
bonkers and the DPLL is totally misprogrammed (P divider == 0).
That will result in atomic commit timeouts as apparently the pipe
is sufficiently stuck to not signal vblank interrupts.

IIRC something like this was also observed on some other SNB
machine years ago (might have been a Dell XPS 8300) but a BIOS
update cured it. Sadly looks like this was never fixed for the
ASUS K53SV as the latest BIOS (K53SV.320 11/11/2011) is still
broken.

The quickest way to deal with this seems to be to shut down
the pipe+ports+DPLL. Unfortunately doing this during the
normal sanitization phase isn't quite soon enough as we
already spew several WARNs about the bogus hardware state.
But it's better than hanging the boot for a few dozen seconds.
Since this is limited to a few old machines it doesn't seem
entirely worthwile to try and rework the readout+sanitization
code to handle it more gracefully.

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.
