Ville Syrjälä c2b6337446 drm/i915: Enable DPLL VGA mode before P1/P2 divider write
Apparently writing the DPLL register P1/P2 divider fields won't trigger
an actual change in the DPLL output unless VGA mode is enabled for
prior to the register write that changes the P1/P2 dividers. The write
with the new P1/P2 divider can itself disable VGA mode again without
problems.

I tested the behaviour on my 946GZ, and when manually frobbing the
register with the display on, the behaviour is very clear. However I
can't explain why this machine actually works. The P1/P2 divider
changes caused by normal modesets do seem to make it through to the
hardware somehow since I get a stable picture on the monitor with
any resolution. Maybe it's the "three times for luck" stuff that
somehow masks the problem, or something.

But apparently there are machines (eg. Nick Bowler's G45) where that
isn't the case and we fail to get the correct clock from the DPLL.

Things used to work because we enabled VGA mode for disabled DPLLs,
so when re-enabling the DPLL VGA mode was enabled just prior to the
first register write, and hence the P1/P2 change went through without
a hitch. That got changed in

b8afb9113c drm/i915: Keep GMCH DPLL VGA mode always disabled

in the name of consistency. In order to keep the consistency part,
leave VGA mode disabled for disabled DPLLs, but turn it on just prior
to updating the P1/P2 dividers to make sure the hardware picks up
on the new values.
