Linux kernel source tree

Video players (eg. mpv) do periodic XResetScreenSaver() calls to
keep the screen on while the video playing. The modesetting ddx
plumbs these straight through into the kernel as DPMS setproperty
ioctls, without any filtering whatsoever. When implemented via
atomic these end up as empty commits on the crtc (which will
nonetheless take one full frame), which leads to a dropped
frame every time XResetScreenSaver() is called.
Let's just filter out redundant DPMS property changes in the
kernel to avoid this issue.
v2: Explain the resulting commits a bit better (Sima)
Document the behaviour in uapi docs (Sima)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
