Gustavo Sousa df66786e69 drm/i915/display: Enable PICA power before AUX
According to Bspec, before enabling AUX power, we need to have the
"power well containing Aux logic powered up". Starting with Xe2_LPD,
such power well is the "PICA" power well, which is managed by the driver
on demand.

While we did add the mapping of AUX power domains to the PICA power
well, we ended up placing its power well descriptor after the
descriptor for AUX power. As a result, when enabling power wells for one
of the aux power domains, the driver will enable AUX power before PICA
power, going against the order specified in Bspec.

It appears that issue did not become apparent to us mainly because,
luckily, AUX power is brought up after we assert PICA power, even if
done in the wrong order; and in enough time for the first AUX
transaction to succeed.

Furthermore, I have also realized that, in some cases, like driver
initialization, PICA power is already up when we need to acquire AUX
power.

One case where we can observe the incorrect ordering is when the driver
is resuming from runtime PM suspend. Here is an excerpt of a dmesg with
some extra debug logs extracted from a LNL machine to illustrate the
issue:

    [  +0.000156] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_power_well_enable [xe]] enabling AUX_TC1
    [  +0.001312] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xelpdp_aux_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC1 power status: 0
    [  +0.000127] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_power_well_enable [xe]] enabling PICA_TC
    [  +0.001072] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC1 power status: 1
    [  +0.000102] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC2 power status: 0
    [  +0.000090] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC3 power status: 0
    [  +0.000092] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC4 power status: 0

The first "DBG: ..." line shows that AUX power for TC1 is off after we
assert and wait. The remaining lines show that AUX power for TC1 was on
after we enabled PICA power and waited for AUX power.

It is important that we stay compliant with the spec, so let's fix this
by listing the power wells in an order that matches the requirements
from Bspec. (As a side note, it would be nice if we could define those
dependencies explicitly.)

After this change, we have:

    [  +0.000146] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_power_well_enable [xe]] enabling PICA_TC
    [  +0.001417] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC1 power status: 0
    [  +0.000116] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC2 power status: 0
    [  +0.000096] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC3 power status: 0
    [  +0.000094] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xe2lpd_pica_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC4 power status: 0
    [  +0.000095] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_power_well_enable [xe]] enabling AUX_TC1
    [  +0.000915] xe 0000:00:02.0: [drm:xelpdp_aux_power_well_enable [xe]] DBG: AUX_CH_USBC1 power status: 1

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.
