drm/modes: parse_cmdline: Add support for specifying panel_orientation (v2)
Sometimes we want to override a connector's panel_orientation from the kernel commandline. Either for testing and for special cases, e.g. a kiosk like setup which uses a TV mounted in portrait mode. Users can already specify a "rotate" option through a video= kernel cmdline option. But that only supports 0/180 degrees (see drm_client_modeset TODO) and only works for in kernel modeset clients, not for userspace kms users. The "panel-orientation" connector property OTOH does support 90/270 degrees as it leaves dealing with the rotation up to userspace and this does work for userspace kms clients (at least those which support this property). Changes in v2: -Add missing ':' after @panel_orientation (reported by kbuild test robot) BugLink: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/merge_requests/83Acked-by: Maxime Ripard <mripard@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20191118155134.30468-9-hdegoede@redhat.com
