This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled

    drm/i915: Break encoder->crtc link separately in intel_sanitize_crtc()

to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree 
which can be found at:

Subject: drm/i915: Break encoder->crtc link separately in
 intel_sanitize_crtc()

commit 7f1950fbb989e8fc5463b307e062b4529d51c862 upstream.

Depending on the SDVO output_flags SDVO may have multiple connectors
linking to the same encoder (in intel_connector->encoder->base).
Only one of those connectors should be active (ie link to the encoder
thru drm_connector->encoder).
If intel_connector_break_all_links() is called from intel_sanitize_crtc()
we may break the crtc connection of an encoder thru an inactive connector
in which case intel_connector_break_all_links() will not be called again
for the active connector if this happens to come later in the list due to:
    if (connector->encoder->base.crtc != &crtc->base)
                                 continue;
in intel_sanitize_crtc().
This will however leave the drm_connector->encoder linkage for this
active connector in place. Subsequently this will cause multiple
warnings in intel_connector_check_state() to trigger and the driver
will eventually die in drm_encoder_crtc_ok() (because of crtc == NULL).

To avoid this remove intel_connector_break_all_links() and move its
code to its two calling functions: intel_sanitize_crtc() and
intel_sanitize_encoder().
This allows to implement the link breaking more flexibly matching
the surrounding code: ie. in intel_sanitize_crtc() we can break the
crtc link separatly after the links to the encoders have been
broken which avoids above problem.

This regression has been introduced in:

commit 24929352481f085c5f85d4d4cbc919ddf106d381
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>

    drm/i915: read out the modeset hw state at load and resume time

so goes back to the very beginning of the modeset rework.

v2: This patch takes care of the concernes voiced by Chris Wilson
and Daniel Vetter that only breaking links if the drm_connector
is linked to an encoder may miss some links.
v3: move all encoder handling to encoder loop as suggested by
Daniel Vetter.
