Daniel Vetter 5c673b60a9 drm/i915: Don't enable display error interrupts from the start
We need to enable interrupt processing before all the modeset
state is set up. But that means we can fall over when we get a pipe
underrun. This shouldn't happen as long as the bios works correctly
but as usual this turns out to be wishful thinking.

So disable error interrupts at irq install time and rely on the
re-enabling code in the modeset functions to take care of this.

Note that due to the SDE interrupt handling race we must
uncondtionally enable all interrupt sources in SDEIER, hence no need
to enable the SERR bit specifically.

On gmch platforms we don't have an explicit enable/mask bit for fifo
underruns. Fixing this up would require a bit of software tracking,
hence is material for a separate patch. To make this possible we need
to switch all gmch platforms to the new pipestat interrupt handling
scheme Imre implemented for vlv, and then also add a safe form of sw
state checking to __cpu_fifo_underrun_reporting_enabled a bit.

v2: Also handle the ilk/snb cpu fifo underrun bits accordingly.
Spotted by Ville.

v3: Also handle the south interrupt underrun bits on ibx. Again
spotted by Ville.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
