+Subject: [PATCH 1500/2940] drm/amd/display: Pass app_tf by value rather than
+ by reference
+
+Clang warns when an expression that equals zero is used as a null
+pointer constant (in lieu of NULL):
+
+drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm.c:4435:3:
+warning: expression which evaluates to zero treated as a null pointer
+constant of type 'const enum color_transfer_func *'
+[-Wnon-literal-null-conversion]
+ TRANSFER_FUNC_UNKNOWN,
+ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+1 warning generated.
+
+This warning is caused by commit bb47de736661 ("drm/amdgpu: Set FreeSync
+state using drm VRR properties") and it could be solved by using NULL
+instead of TRANSFER_FUNC_UNKNOWN or casting TRANSFER_FUNC_UNKNOWN as a
+pointer. However, after looking into it, there doesn't appear to be a
+good reason to pass app_tf by reference as it is never mutated along the
+way. This is the only code path in which app_tf is used:
+
+mod_freesync_build_vrr_infopacket ->
+ build_vrr_infopacket_v2 ->
+ build_vrr_infopacket_fs2_data
+
+Neither mod_freesync_build_vrr_infopacket or build_vrr_infopacket_v2
+modify app_tf's value and build_vrr_infopacket_fs2_data expects just
+the value so we can avoid dereferencing anything by just passing in
+app_tf's value to mod_freesync_build_vrr_infopacket and
+build_vrr_infopacket_v2.
+
+There is no functional change because build_vrr_infopacket_fs2_data
+doesn't do anything if TRANSFER_FUNC_UNKNOWN is passed to it, the same
+as not calling build_vrr_infopacket_fs2_data at all like before this
+change when NULL was used for app_tf.
