[PATCH v8 17/21] drm/bridge: synopsys: dw-dp: Drop useless reservation of first slot
From: Sebastian Reichel
Date: Fri Jul 31 2026 - 10:59:01 EST
The origin of this reservation is unclear, but it is a problem in the
atomic_enable code since it potentially races with the audio SDP
reservation once that feature is added. I suppose it was either meant to
be bitmap_zero(), but that is obviously not needed (and would also be a
problem for audio support) or some left-over development code before the
VSC SDP slot was allocated automatically.
>From my tests SDP slot 0 works fine and can be used. If SDP slot 0
really needs to be reserved for some reason, the bit should be set in
the probe function to ensure there are no race conditions.
