Subject: [BUGFIX] video/mxsfb: fix crash when unblanking the display
Date: Tue,  6 Dec 2011 13:27:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1323174425-24038-1-git-send-email-LW@KARO-electronics.de> (raw)

The VDCTRL4 register does not provide the MXS SET/CLR/TOGGLE feature.
The write in mxsfb_disable_controller() sets the data_cnt for the LCD
DMA to 0 which obviously means the max. count for the LCD DMA and
leads to overwriting arbitrary memory when the display is unblanked.
