Re: [Freedreno] [PATCH] drm/msm/disp/dpu1: avoid clearing hw interrupts if hw_intr is null during drm uninit

[Abhinav Kumar]

Looks like our new CI has given all the answers we need :) which is a 
great win for the CI in my opinion.

Take a look at this report : 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/msm/-/jobs/22015361

This issue seems to be because this change 
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/169466d4e59ca204683998b7f45673ebf0eb2de6 
is missing in our tree.

Without this change, what happens is that we are not hitting the return 
0 because we check for ENODEV.


  /*
     * External bridges are mandatory for eDP interfaces: one has to
     * provide at least an eDP panel (which gets wrapped into 
panel-bridge).
     *
     * For DisplayPort interfaces external bridges are optional, so
     * silently ignore an error if one is not present (-ENODEV).
     */
    rc = dp_parser_find_next_bridge(dp_priv->parser);
    if (!dp->is_edp && rc == -ENODEV)
        return 0;

So, I think we should do both:

1) Since we are running CI on the tree, backport this change so that 
this error path doesnt hit?

2) Add this protection as well because this shows that we can indeed hit 
this path in EDEFER cases causing this crash.

Thanks
