There are only two front end encoders, but up to 5 backend transmitters (2 transmitters with 2 links each and 1 transmitter with 1 link) that can be used independently so if you hard code the front end to backend link, you will not end up with valid routing in some cases. E.g., if you have two connectors using linka of the transmitters you'll end up with the same front end when you really want separate front ends.

The late 2009, 27 inch Apple iMac10,1 has an internal eDP display and an external Mini- Displayport output, driven by a DCE-3.2, RV730 Radeon Mobility HD-4670. The machine worked fine in a dual-display setup with eDP panel + externally connected HDMI or DVI-D digital display sink, connected via MiniDP to DVI or HDMI adapter. However, booting the machine single-display with only eDP panel results in a completely black display - even backlight powering off, as soon as the radeon modesetting driver loads. This patch fixes the single dispay eDP case by assigning encoders based on dig->linkb, similar to DCE-4+. While this should not be generally necessary (Alex: "...atom on normal boards should be able to handle any mapping."), Apple seems to use some special routing here. One remaining problem not solved by this patch is that an external Minidisplayport->DP sink does still not work on iMac10,1, whereas external DVI and HDMI sinks continue to work. The problem affects at least all tested kernels since Linux 3.13 - didn't test earlier kernels, so backporting to stable probably makes sense.
