[PATCH 3.18 45/57] drm: fix fb-helper vs MST dangling connector ptrs (v2)

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Feb 03 2015 - 18:44:49 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rob Clark <robdclark@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2148f18fdb45f31ca269a7787fbc24053cd42e70 upstream.

VT switch back/forth from console to xserver (for example) has potential
to go horribly wrong if a dynamic DP MST connector ends up in the saved
modeset that is restored when switching back to fbcon.

When removing a dynamic connector, don't forget to clean up the saved
state.

v1: original
v2: null out set->fb if no more connectors to avoid making i915 cranky
