drm/i915/tv: Generate better pipe timings for TV encoder
To make vblank timestamps work better with the TV encoder let's
scale the pipe timings such that the relationship between the
TV active and TV blanking periods is mirrored in the
corresponding pipe timings.
Note that in reality the pipe runs at a faster speed during the
TV vblank, and correspondigly there are periods when the pipe
is enitrely stopped. We pretend that this isn't the case and
as such we incur some error in the vblank timestamps during
the TV vblank. Further explanation of the issues in a big
comment in the code.
This makes the vblank timestamps good enough to make
i965gm (which doesn't have a working frame counter with
the TV encoder) report correct frame numbers. Previously
you could get all kinds of nonsense which resulted in
eg. glxgears reporting that it's running at twice the
actual framerate in most cases.
v2: s/IS_GEN4(dev_priv)/IS_GEN(dev_priv, 4)/ in the comment
for consistency
