Recent patch fixed the call trace
"ERROR Port B enabled but PHY powered down? (PHY_CTL 00000000)".
but introduced another similar call trace shown as:
"ERROR Port C enabled but PHY powered down? (PHY_CTL 00000200)".
The call trace will appear when host and guest enabled different ports,
i.e. host using PORT C or neither PORT is enabled, while guest is always
using PORT B as simulated by gvt. The issue is actually covered previously
before the commit and reverals now when the commit do the right thing.
On BXT, some PHY registers are initialized by vbios, before i915 loaded.
Later i915 will re-program some, or skip some based on the implementation.
The initialized mmio for guest i915 is done by gvt, based on the snapshot
taken from host. If host and guest have different PORT enabled, some
DPIO PHY mmios that gvt initialized for guest i915 will not match the
simualted monitor for guest, which leads to guest i915 print the calltrace
when it's trying to enable PHY and PORT.
The solution is to init these DPIO PHY registers to default value, then
guest i915 will program them to reasonable value based on the default
powerwell table and enabled PORT. Together with the old patch, all similar
call trace in guest kernel on BXT can be resolved.
v2: Move PHY register init to intel_vgpu_reset_mmio (Min)
v3: Do not delete empty line in issue fix patch. (zhenyu)

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
