SRU Justification for linux (Ubuntu):

Impact: With BeagleBoard xM rev A3 the DVI_PU is now used and connected to GPIO 2 on TPS65950. Without setting up this GPIO the DVI will be off, and the user will be unable to install and use the distro.

Fix: The problem is fixed by setting up the GPIO 2 on TPS65950 for when running at Beagle xM. There's no problem when setting this GPIO in previous xM revisions as it's not connected. For more details please see http://beagleboard.org/hardware/design.

Testcase: When booting with current kernel on xM A3 you should be unable to use the DVI. After applying the fix it should work the same way as with previous xM revisions.
