3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Marcin Slusarz <[email protected]> commit 92441b2263866c27ef48137be5aa6c8c692652fc upstream. Commit 2a44e499 ("drm/nouveau/disp: introduce proper init/fini, separate from create/destroy") started to call display init routines on pre-nv50 hardware on module load. But LVDS init code sets driver state in a way which prevents modesetting code from operating properly. nv04_display_init calls nv04_dfp_restore, which sets encoder->last_dpms to NV_DPMS_CLEARED. drm_crtc_helper_set_mode nv04_dfp_prepare nv04_lvds_dpms(DRM_MODE_DPMS_OFF) nv04_lvds_dpms checks last_dpms mode (which is NV_DPMS_CLEARED) and wrongly assumes it's a "powersaving mode", the new one (DRM_MODE_DPMS_OFF) is too, so it skips calling some crucial lvds scripts.
