Here is some news.
Ville Salmela kindly reported that it works fine for him, but that, as
expected, the flickering is still present.
Hence, I just applied the planned patch that avoids needlessly resetting
the ADV717x chip.
As far as I am concerned (my TV set does not understand WSS), the
flickering is gone with this patch. But I need someone to confirm that
the WSS still works.
As usual, all comments are welcome.
If everything works fine, I'm willing to implement some callback so the
kernel tells a userspace application when the aspect ratio changes, and
the userspace application decides to change the TV aspect ration, do
some cropping and/or sets up WSS.
Cheers,
Nicolas
