[PATCH v2] drm/vc4: Return -EBUSY if there's already a pending flip event.

From: robert . foss
Date: Tue May 03 2016 - 13:48:31 EST


From: Robert Foss <robert.foss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

As per the documentation in drm_crtc.h, atomic_commit should return
-EBUSY if an asycnhronous update is requested and there is an earlier
update pending.

Note: docs cited here are drm_crtc.h, and the whole quote is:

* - -EBUSY, if an asynchronous updated is requested and there is
* an earlier updated pending. Drivers are allowed to support a queue
* of outstanding updates, but currently no driver supports that.
* Note that drivers must wait for preceding updates to complete if a
* synchronous update is requested, they are not allowed to fail the
* commit in that case.
