[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.12] drm/amd/display: Initialize dsc_caps to 0
Posted by Sasha Levin 3 weeks, 5 days ago
From: Ivan Lipski <ivan.lipski@amd.com>

[ Upstream commit d18ecfee5187e3b2dbff7e67dda8b2f54ff5231c ]

[Why&How]
If we don't do that we make DSC decisions based on random
inputs, which might result in disallowing DSC when the
monitor and HW support it.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

The background searches finished and matched the earlier analysis:

- **Fix not in this tree:** `git log` for `Initialize dsc_caps` /
  `dsc_caps = {0}` returned nothing — the patch isn’t in v6.18.44 yet,
  but the bug is still there (`struct dsc_dec_dpcd_caps dsc_caps;` at
  line 7168).
- **b4 dig:** No result, since the commit isn’t present locally to look
  up.

**Verdict stands: YES** for backport to this 6.18.y tree — one-line
zero-init fix for uninitialized DSC caps used during mode setup on
AMDGPU.
