Daniel Vetter 4a97a3da42 drm: Don't update property values for atomic drivers
Atomic drivers only use the property value store for immutable (i.e.
can't be set by userspace, but the kernel can still adjust it)
properties. The only tricky part is the removal of the update in
drm_atomic_helper_update_legacy_modeset_state().

This was added in

    drm/atomic: Update legacy DPMS state during modesets, v3.

by copying it from the i915 code, where it was originally added in

    drm/i915: update dpms property in set_mode

for the legacy modeset code. The reason we needed this hack was that
i915 didn't yet set DRIVER_ATOMIC, and we checked for that instead of
the newer-ish drm_drv_uses_atomic_modeset(), which avoids such
troubles. With the correct feature checks this isn't needed anymore at
all.

Also make sure that drivers don't accidentally get this wrong by
making the exported version of drm_object_property_get_value() only
work for legacy drivers. Only gma500 uses it anyway.

v2: Fixup the uses_atomic_modeset() checks (Maarten)

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
