Hans de Goede 64d17f25dc drm/nouveau: Fix drm-core using atomic code-paths on pre-nv50 hardware
We do not support atomic modesetting on pre-nv50 hardware, but until now
our connector code was setting drm_connector->state on pre-nv50 hardware.

This causes the core to enter atomic modesetting paths in at least:

1. drm_connector_get_encoder(), returning connector->state->best_encoder
which is always 0, causing us to always report 0 as encoder_id in
the drmModeConnector struct returned by drmModeGetConnector().

2. drm_encoder_get_crtc(), returning NULL because uses_atomic get set,
causing us to always report 0 as crtc_id in the drmModeEncoder struct
returned by drmModeGetEncoder()

Which in turn confuses userspace, at least plymouth thinks that the pipe
has changed because of this and tries to reconfigure it unnecessarily.

More in general we should not set drm_connector->state in the non-atomic
code as this violates the drm-core's expectations.

This commit fixes this by using a nouveau_conn_atom struct embedded in the
nouveau_connector struct for property handling in the non-atomic case.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
