Panel in my Dell XPS 7590, that uses Intel's HDR backlight interface to control brightness, apparently needs a delay before setting brightness after power on. Without this delay the panel does accept the setting and may come up with some arbitrary brightness (sometimes it's too dark, sometimes it's too bright, I wasn't able to find a system).
I don't have access to the spec, so I'm not sure if it's expected behavior or a quirk for particular device.
Delay was chosen by experiment: it works with 100ms, but fails with anything lower than 75ms.
Looks like we don't respect the panel delays for DPCD backlight. The values are used for setting up the panel power sequencer, and thus PWM based backlight, but we should probably use the delays in DPCD backlight code too.
This makes sense to me, you're referring to the panel delays in the VBT correct?
Yes. See pps_init_delays() and intel_pps_backlight_on(). The delays aren't applied to DPCD backlight, I think it would make sense if they were.
