[PATCH 1/2] drm/atomic: Allow vblank-enabled + self-refresh "disable"

[Brian Norris]

The self-refresh helper framework overloads "disable" to sometimes mean
"go into self-refresh mode," and this mode activates automatically
(e.g., after some period of unchanging display output). In such cases,
the display pipe is still considered "on", and user-space is not aware
that we went into self-refresh mode. Thus, users may expect that
vblank-related features (such as DRM_IOCTL_WAIT_VBLANK) still work
properly.

However, we trigger the WARN_ONCE() here if a CRTC driver tries to leave
vblank enabled here.

Add a new exception, such that we allow CRTCs to be "disabled" (with
self-refresh active) with vblank interrupts still enabled.
