drm/radeon: Ensure vblank interrupt is enabled on DPMS transition to on
NOTE: This patch only applies to 4.5.y or older kernels. With newer kernels, this problem cannot happen because the driver now uses drm_crtc_vblank_on/off instead of drm_vblank_pre/post_modeset[0]. I consider this patch safer for older kernels than backporting the API change, because drm_crtc_vblank_on/off had various issues in older kernels, and I'm not sure all fixes for those have been backported to all stable branches where this patch could be applied. --------------------- Fixes the vblank interrupt being disabled when it should be on, which can cause at least the following symptoms: * Hangs when running 'xset dpms force off' in a GNOME session with gnome-shell using DRI2. * RandR 1.4 slave outputs freezing with garbage displayed using xf86-video-ati 7.8.0 or newer.
