Daniel Vetter 9d54fcd541 drm/gem-fb-helper: Always do implicit sync 
I've done a lot of history digging. The first signs of this
optimization was introduced in i915:

commit 25067bfc06

    drm/i915: pin sprite fb only if it changed

without much justification. Pinning already pinned stuff is real cheap
(it's just obj->pin_count++ really), and the missing implicit sync was
entirely forgotten about it seems. It's at least not mentioned
anywhere it the commit message.

It was also promptly removed shortly afterwards in

    drm/i915: Move to atomic plane helpers (v9)

again without really mentioning the side-effect that plane updates
with the same fb now again obey implicit syncing.

Note that this only ever applied to the plane_update hook, all other
legacy entry points (set_base, page_flip) always obeyed implicit sync
in the drm/i915 driver.

The real source of this code here seems to be msm, copied to vc4, then
copied to tinydrm. I've also tried to dig around in all available msm
sources, but the corresponding check for fb != old_fb is present ever
since the initial merge in

    drm/msm: atomic core bits

The only older version I've found of msm atomic code predates the
atomic helpers, and so didn't even use any of this. It also does not
have a corresponding check (because it simply did no implicit sync at
all).

I've chatted with Rob on irc, and he didn't remember the reason for
this either.

Note we had epic amounts of fun with too much syncing against
_vblank_, especially around cursor updates. But I don't ever
discussing a need for less syncing against implicit fences.

Also note that explicit fencing allows you to sidetrack all of this,
at least for all the drivers correctly implemented using
drm_atomic_set_fence_for_plane().

Given that it seems to be an accident of history, and that big drivers
like i915 (and also nouveau it seems, I didn't follow the
amdgpu/radeon sync code to figure this out properly there) never have
done it, let's remove this.

README 

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
