Pushed a drm-fixes-4.16 branch (based on Alex's) to my FDO repo

system setup to test this at the moment.
Tom, or Piotr, would you be able to check that the fix works as intended on
that branch?
Tested that branch, confirmed that the VGA patch is there but I got the
original result of broken video. Rebooted few times. It seems that my issue was
not the VGA turnover afterall. I will re-test it with vanilla
amd-staging-drm-next of git://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux without the
VGA patch and update you.
Thanks for testing.
What do you mean with broken video? I tried going back in the email thread but
I'm not 100% clear what you mean by this.
BTW, drm-fixes-4.16 are fixes we intend to get into the 4.16 upstream kernel.
amd-staging-drm-next is our development tree and quite a bit farther ahead in
development. I'm trying to find fixes to backmerge to 4.16 to make everyone
happy when it releases.

I re-tested original tree of git://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux on
branch amd-staging-drm-next and got the 'double screen' glitches, then I
applied the patch Tom sent me as the very first response to this thread and
then it indeed fixed it. So the VGA takeover patch is needed it, it seems.
I triple checked and build the images and the drm-fixes-4.16 of
git://people.freedesktop.org/~hwentland/linux does not fix the problem for me.
So far only amd-staging-drm-next with
0001-drm-amd-display-Fix-takeover-from-VGA-mode.patch does the trick. One thing
worth note is that the amd-staging-drm-next goes as `rc1` where yours fork
Harry appears to be rc3, no idea if it's related or not.
