drm/lease: Send a distinct uevent
Sending the exact same hotplug event is not great uapi. Luckily the only already merged implementation of leases (in the -modesetting driver) doesn't care about what kind of uevent it gets, and unconditionally processes both hotplug and lease changes. So we can still adjust the uapi here. But e.g. weston tries to filter stuff, and I guess others might want to do that too. Try to make that possible. Cc: stable since it's uapi adjustement that we want to roll out everywhere. Michel Dänzer mentioned on irc that -amdgpu also has lease support. It has the same code flow as -modesetting though, so we can still go ahead. v2: Mention -amdgpu (Michel) Cc: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20181129094226.30591-1-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch
