drm: Fix treatment of drm_vblank_offdelay in drm_vblank_on() (v2)
commit bb74fc1b upstream. drm_vblank_offdelay can have three different types of values: < 0 is to be always treated the same as dev->vblank_disable_immediate = 0 is to be treated as "never disable vblanks" > 0 is to be treated as disable immediate if kms driver wants it that way via dev->vblank_disable_immediate. Otherwise it is a disable timeout in msecs. This got broken in Linux 3.18+ for the implementation of drm_vblank_on. If the user specified a value of zero which should always reenable vblank irqs in this function, a kms driver could override the users choice by setting vblank_disable_immediate to true. This patch fixes the regression and keeps the user in control. v2: Only reenable vblank if there are clients left or the user requested to "never disable vblanks" via offdelay 0. Enabling vblanks even in the "delayed disable" case (offdelay > 0) was specifically added by Ville in commit cd19e52a ("drm: Kick start vblank interrupts at drm_vblank_on()"), but after discussion it turns out that this was done by accident. Citing Ville: "I think it just ended up as a mess due to changing some of the semantics of offdelay<0 vs. offdelay==0 vs. disable_immediate during the review of the series. So yeah, given how drm_vblank_put() works now, I'd just make this check for offdelay==0."
