Commit Message

Thomas Hellstrom Oct. 4, 2018, 10:38 p.m. UTC
Make the connector is_implicit property immutable.
As far as we know, no user-space application is writing to it.

Also move the verification that all implicit display units scan out
from the same framebuffer to atomic_check().

No need to keep the empty functions.

This codepath will never be take with immutable props. So you can nuke
this and you must do the appropriate drm_property_set_value() somewhere
to make the prop value match .is_implicit.

Thanks for reviewing, Ville.

I'll fix those up.
