[PATCH] drm/bridge: dw-hdmi-qp: Guard clear_audio_infoframe when PHY is down

[Frank Zhang]

The following panic was observed during system reboot:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Asynchronous SError Interrupt
CPU: 6 UID: 1000 PID: 2348 Comm: pipewire ... 7.0.5+ #4 PREEMPT(full)

The root cause is pipewire tries to close the HDMI audio device after
atomic_disable(), which sets tmds_char_rate to 0 and disables the PHY.

In this case, dw_hdmi_qp_audio_disable() will call
dw_hdmi_qp_bridge_clear_audio_infoframe(), accessing register without
checking tmds_char_rate.

Guard the register access in drm_display_helper callback function with
tmds_char_rate check.

Changes in v2:
- Move drm_atomic_helper_connector_hdmi_clear_audio_infoframe() inside
  the if (hdmi->tmds_char_rate) of dw_hdmi_qp_audio_disable().
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260416093150.13853-1-rmxpzlb@xxxxxxxxx/

Changes in v3:
- Add a tmds_char_rate guard in clear_audio_infoframe path.
- Decouple write_audio_infoframe from clear_audio_infoframe.
- Balance the PKTSCHED_AMD_TX_EN bit enable/disable.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260418101936.7731-1-rmxpzlb@xxxxxxxxx/

Changes in v4:
- Update panic stack on 7.0.5
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260423081514.15444-1-rmxpzlb@xxxxxxxxx/

Changes in v5:
- Reuse the origin dw_hdmi_qp_bridge_clear_audio_infoframe and add
  tmds_char_rate guard in new callback function.
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260512103153.8861-1-rmxpzlb@xxxxxxxxx/
