Commit Message

Some older versions of gcc badly optimize code that passes
an inline function argument into another function by reference,
causing huge stack usage:

drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/tc358768.c: In function 'tc358768_bridge_pre_enable':
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/tc358768.c:840:1: error: the frame size of 2256 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Use a temporary variable as a workaround and add a comment pointing
to the gcc bug.

Fixes: ff1ca6397b1d ("drm/bridge: Add tc358768 driver")

tc358768_write is not inline. What is the inline function here? Or is tc358768_write optimized to 
inline by the compiler?

I missed the lack of an explicit inline tag when looking at the bug. gcc
usually decides which functions to inline on its own, so there is little
difference in practice. Let me know if I should clarify the changelog and
resend it.

Ok. I think this is fine.

Thanks, pushed to drm-misc-next with Tomi's r-b.
