Choose between atomic or non atomic connector dpms helper. If tda998x
is connected to a drm driver that does not support atomic modeset
calling drm_atomic_helper_connector_dpms() causes a crash when the
connectors atomic state is not initialized. The patch implements a
driver specific connector dpms helper that calls
drm_atomic_helper_connector_dpms() if driver supports DRIVER_ATOMIC
and otherwise it calls the legacy drm_helper_connector_dpms().

Fixes commit 9736e988d328 ("drm/i2c: tda998x: Add support for atomic
modesetting").

Ok, so this is the second approach to solve this issue. The first
attempt can be found here [1] with the follow from Liviu Dudau that
suggested this approach. 

It just makes me wonder if drm_atomic_helper_connector_dpms() should
call the legacy callback automatically if DRIVER_ATOMIC is not set or
at least bail out gracefully with an error message. Then again it may
be overkill if the tda998x is the only driver that need to support
both situations.

Best regards,
Jyri

Looks much cleaner to me.

I would guess that in general it makes sense for the core code to do what
you suggest, but the idea is to try to encourage the drivers to convert
to atomic ops rather than give them too many crutches. And the tda998x will
need this for a short period of time until tilcdc converts as well.

Liviu

It's not just tilcdc that this driver is used by.

I have no plans at present to convert armada to atomic mode setting,
although I occasionally push it (I hope) towards that goal.  This
isn't going to happen quickly, because I've other areas that need
work too.

Hi,
Based on discussion around this patch:

https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2016-February/100685.html

I think the patch below should get into queued for v4.5 fixes as the 
Beaglebone-Black display is currently broken in linux-master and 
probably Armada is broken too. What should I do to get it there?

Best regards,
Jyri

I've pushed this to drm-fixes.
