Yes, I think that makes sense, but it's not what I was trying to say. =)
What I was trying to say is that read request and scrambling are defined
in the SCDC specification, and therefore they require SCDC. That's why I
think the below is a natural representation because it captures the
dependency in a hierarchy:

> > 	};

I should have added to the above:

	struct drm_hdmi_info {
		struct drm_hdmi_scdc_info scdc;
	};

So when conditionalizing code this allows for a very natural ordering of
the code:

	struct drm_display_info *info = ...;
	struct drm_hdmi_scdc_info *scdc = &info->hdmi.scdc;

	if (scdc->supported) {
		...

		if (scdc->read_request) {
			...
			e.g. set up handler for read requests
			...
		}

		...

		if (scdc->scrambling.supported) {
			if (mode->clock >= 340000 || scdc->scrambling.low_rates) {
				...
				set up scrambling
				...;
			}
		}

		...
	}
