drm/fbdev-client: Skip DRM clients if modesetting is absent
Recent generations of Tegra have moved the display components outside of host1x, leading to a device that has no CRTCs attached and hence doesn't support any of the modesetting functionality. When this is detected, the driver clears the DRIVER_MODESET and DRIVER_ATOMIC flags for the device. Unfortunately, this causes the following errors during boot: [ 15.418958] ERR KERN drm drm: [drm] *ERROR* Failed to register client: -95 [ 15.425311] WARNING KERN drm drm: [drm] Failed to set up DRM client; error -95 These originate from the fbdev client checking for the presence of the DRIVER_MODESET flag and returning -EOPNOTSUPP. However, if a driver does not support DRIVER_MODESET this is entirely expected and the error isn't helpful. Prevent this misleading error message by setting up the DRM clients only if modesetting is enabled. Changes in v2: - use DRIVER_MODESET check to avoid registering any clients Reported-by: Jonathan Hunter <jonathanh@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding <treding@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Jon Hunter <jonathanh@nvidia.com> Tested-by: Jon Hunter <jonathanh@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250613122838.2082334-1-thierry.reding@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Dmitry Baryshkov <dmitry.baryshkov@oss.qualcomm.com>
