Dominik Kaszewski 04d57f4462 drm/amd/display: Workaround for stuck I2C arbitrage
[Why]
When booting without an HDMI display connected, the I2C registers
are not initialized correctly, leading to DC_I2C_ARBITRATION register
getting stuck with DC_I2C_REG_RW_CNTL_STATUS == USED_BY_SW.

[How]
* Correct TOCTOU race condition in engine acquire logic which did not
check against DMUB trying to acquire it at the same time.
* Deassert SOFT_RESET before acquire, as it can block access to other
I2C registers.
* Add a workaround in release, checking that after triggerring
DC_I2C_SW_DONE_USING_I2C_REG, DC_I2C_REG_RW_CNTL_STATUS != USED_BY_SW.
If necessary, trigger DC_I2C_SW_DONE_USING_I2C_REG again.
* Remove unnecessary clear of DC_I2C_SW_USE_I2C_REG_REQ, which engine
ignores according to specification.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
