I will merge this patch as-is and just sharing the following comments
purely for reference (for other Exynos DRM contributors).

This patch likely needs follow-up improvements in conjunction with
Marek’s earlier patch (commit-id:
15f389da11257b806da75a070cfa41ca0cc15aae). I’m unable to verify this
at the moment because the SoC Technical Reference Manual (TRM)
documentation I have is incomplete.

Based on these two patches, we should plan for future code
improvements that account for two scenarios:

- The header FIFO must be waited for.
- The header FIFO does not need to be waited for.

Currently, this is handled via driver data using the
has_broken_fifoctrl_emptyhdr and wait_for_hdr_fifo flags. If the
handling of this behavior changes in newer Exynos SoCs, this approach
may become confusing or lead to inconsistencies.

Thanks,
Inki Dae
