We've used a temporary platform device for firmware EDID loading since
it was introduced in commit da0df92b5731 ("drm: allow loading an EDID as
firmware to override broken monitor"), but there's no explanation why.Do we need to? Maybe this fixes the suspend/resume issue? (Yes, I'll rewrite the commit message if this is the way to go ;) References: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Cc: Matthieu CHARETTE <[email protected]> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <[email protected]> --- drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c | 11 +---------- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c index 37d8ba3ddb46..fbae12130234 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c @@ -182,18 +182,9 @@ static void *edid_load(struct drm_connector *connector, const char *name, fwdata = generic_edid[builtin]; fwsize = sizeof(generic_edid[builtin]); } else { - struct platform_device *pdev; int err; - pdev = platform_device_register_simple(connector_name, -1, NULL, 0); - if (IS_ERR(pdev)) { - DRM_ERROR("Failed to register EDID firmware platform device " - "for connector \"%s\"\n", connector_name); - return ERR_CAST(pdev); - } - - err = request_firmware(&fw, name, &pdev->dev); - platform_device_unregister(pdev); + err = request_firmware(&fw, name, connector->dev->dev); if (err) { DRM_ERROR("Requesting EDID firmware \"%s\" failed (err=%d)\n", name, err); -- 2.34.1
