At the moment the driver sets the power state of all the PDs it creates to off, regardless of the actual HW state. This has two drawbacks: 1) The kernel cannot disable unused PDs automatically for power saving, as it thinks they are off already 2) A more specific case (but perhaps applicable to other scenarios also): bootloader enabled splash-screen cannot be kept on the screen. The issue in 2) is that the driver framework automatically enables the device's PD before calling probe() and disables it after the probe(). This means that when the display subsystem (DSS) driver probes, but e.g. fails due to deferred probing, the DSS PD gets turned off and the driver cannot do anything to affect that. Solving the 2) requires more changes to actually keep the PD on during the boot, but a prerequisite for it is to have the correct power state for the PD. The downside with this patch is that it takes time to call the 'is_on' op, and we need to call it for each PD. In my tests with AM62 SK, using defconfig, I see an increase from ~3.5ms to ~7ms. However, the added feature is valuable, so in my opinion it's worth it. The performance could probably be improved with a new firmware API which returns the power states of all the PDs. There's also a related HW issue at play here: if the DSS IP is enabled and active, and its PD is turned off without first disabling the DSS display outputs, the DSS IP will hang and causes the kernel to halt if and when the DSS driver accesses the DSS registers the next time. With the current upstream kernel, with this patch applied, this means that if the bootloader enables the display, and the DSS driver is compiled as a module, the kernel will at some point disable unused PDs, including the DSS PD. When the DSS module is later loaded, it will hang the kernel. The same issue is already there, even without this patch, as the DSS driver may hit deferred probing, which causes the PD to be turned off, and leading to kernel halt when the DSS driver is probed again. This issue has been made quite rare with some arrangements in the DSS driver's probe, but it's still there. So, because of the DSS hang issues, I think this patch is still an RFC. Hopefully we can sort out all the issues, but this patch (or similar) will be part of the solution so I'd like to get some acks/nacks/comments for this. Also, this change might have side effects to other devices too, if the drivers expect the PD to be on, so testing is needed.
