drm/tidss: Fix sync-lost issue with two displays
A sync lost issue can be observed with two displays, when moving a plane from one disabled display to an another disabled display, and then enabling the display to which the plane was moved to. The exact requirements for this to trigger are not clear. It looks like the issue is that the layers are left enabled in the first display's OVR registers. Even if the corresponding VP is disabled, it still causes an issue, as if the disabled VP and its OVR would still be in use, leading to the same VID being used by two OVRs. However, this is just speculation based on testing the DSS behavior. Experimentation shows that as a workaround, we can disable all the layers in the OVR when disabling a VP. There should be no downside to this, as the OVR is anyway effectively disabled if its VP is disabled, and it seems to solve the sync lost issue. However, there may be a bigger issue in play here, related to J721e erratum i2097 ("DSS: Disabling a Layer Connected to Overlay May Result in Synclost During the Next Frame"). Experimentation also shows that the OVR's CHANNELIN field has similar issue. So we may need to revisit this when we find out more about the core issue.
