I am using these patches to run HDMI 2.0 compliance so:

Tested-by: Jose Abreu <joabreu at synopsys.com>

I also have code ready that does the EDID parsing of HDMI 2.0
blocks (HF-VSDB, 4:2:0 VDB and 4:2:0 VCB). The code was tested
and validated against bridge driver dw-hdmi resorting to HDMI
compliance equipment. Besides the parsing I also added support
for YCbCr 4:2:0 encoding. Still, to send the patches I need this
series to get accepted first.
