[PATCH] drm/nouveau/bar/gk20a: Avoid bar teardown during init

From: Jon Hunter
Date: Thu Jan 04 2018 - 06:29:20 EST


Commit bbb163e18960 ("drm/nouveau/bar: implement bar1 teardown")
introduced add a teardown helper function for BAR1. During
initialisation of the Nouveau, initially all the teardown helpers are
called once, before calling their init counterparts. For gk20a, after
the BAR1 teardown function is called, the device is hanging during the
initialisation of the FB sub-device. At this point it is unclear why
this is happening and this is still under investigation. However, this
change is preventing Tegra124 devices from booting when Nouveau is
enabled. To allow Tegra124 to boot, remove the teardown helper for
gk20a.

This is based upon a previous patch by Guillaume Tucker but limits
the workaround to only gk20a GPUs.

I am not happy that we do not yet fully understand the cause of
the hang, but I am talking with a few people at NVIDIA about this
and have a few things to look into. However, given that we are
close to v4.15 being released and I am not sure we will have a
proper fix in place before, I think it is best to workaround
this for now.
