Dhinakaran Pandiyan 07bcd99b80 drm/i915/frontbuffer: Pull frontbuffer_flush out of gem_obj_pin_to_display
i915_gem_obj_pin_to_display() calls frontbuffer_flush with origin set to
DIRTYFB. The callers however are at a vantage point to decide if hardware
frontbuffer tracking can do the flush for us. For example, legacy cursor
updates, like flips, write to MMIO registers, which then triggers PSR flush
by the hardware. Moving frontbuffer_flush out will enable us to skip a
software initiated flush by setting origin to FLIP. Thanks to Chris for the
idea.

v2:
Rebased due to Ville adding intel_plane_pin_fb().
Minor code reordering as fb_obj_flush doesn't need struct_mutex (Chris)

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
