[PATCH 0/5] drm/vc4: Use the firmware to stop the display pipeline

Hi,

The VC4 driver has had limited support to disable the HDMI controllers and
pixelvalves at boot if the firmware has enabled them.

However, this proved to be limited, and a bit unreliable so a new firmware
command has been introduced some time ago to make it free all its resources and
disable any display output it might have enabled.

This series takes advantage of that command to call it once the transition from
simplefb to the KMS driver has been done.

Let me know what you think,
Maxime
