Chen-Yu Tsai bda8eaa6de drm: sun4i: hdmi: Remove extra HPD polling
The HPD sense mechanism in Allwinner's old HDMI encoder hardware is more
or less an input-only GPIO. Other GPIO-based HPD implementations
directly return the current state, instead of polling for a specific
state and returning the other if that times out.

Remove the I/O polling from sun4i_hdmi_connector_detect() and directly
return a known state based on the current reading. This also gets rid
of excessive CPU usage by kworker as reported on Stack Exchange [1] and
Armbian forums [2].

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.

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.
