In commit a670ff578f1f ("drm/msm/dpu: always use mdp device to scale
bandwidth") we fully moved interconnect stuff to the DPU driver. This
had no change for sc7180 but _did_ have an impact for other SoCs. It
made them match the sc7180 scheme.

[skipped the description]


Changes in v2:
- Don't set bandwidth in init.

As msm_mdss is now used for both DPU and MDP5 devices, could you
please confirm that this value is valid for older devices too? E.g.
db410c or 8974

I need to check with Kalyan on this value (400MB) as I am unable to find
documentation on this. Will update this thread when I do.

So prior to this change 627dc55c273da ("drm/msm/disp/dpu1: icc path
needs to be set before dpu runtime resume"), this value was coming from
the hw catalog

After this, we moved to a hard-coded value, I am not sure why.

So nothing wrong with this change as such, the only question is whether
this value is correct for older chips.

But the question here is, are older chips even using icc.

It seems like only sc7180, RB3/RB5 are unless i am mistaken.

We are not using it for msm8916 (but we should most probably). And for
the msm8996 the icc patches were by Yassine.

So is there really any impact to the older chips with this change.

If not, we should probably let this one go ahead and move back to
catalog based approach while extending ICC for older chips.

Let's get this sorted out. I'm fine with 400 MBps, if that works for
all chipsets.


I confirm that 400MBps min vote will work for all chipsets based on the discussion i had with my team.

Here, the additional thing to note as per discussion with doug on IRC is

now two ICC paths get created, one from mdp5's probe and the other from msm_mdss_init().

So the ICC driver will aggregate the votes and take the max for the second parameter ( IB ).

So for normal use-cases this will still work fine.

Thanks
