FWIW it does not compile:
CC drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lvds.o
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lvds.c: In function âintel_lvds_enableâ:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lvds.c:110: error: âPPS_STATUSâ undeclared
(first use in this function)
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lvds.c:110: error: (Each undeclared
identifier is reported only once
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lvds.c:110: error: for each function it appears in.)
