I was worried about this sitution:
- There is one 420_only mode (38x21 at 60) in EDID
- We added a 420_only mode in the list, which userspace can see (but 
cant differentiate between non-420 or 420 mode)
- Userspace triggers a modeset on this, but the driver doesn't support 
YCBCR420 output yet, as source doesn't support it yet.

In this case, we will cause modeset failure for each driver which doesnt 
support HDMI 2.0.
So if we have to make a 420_only mode visible to userspace, we have to 
indicate somehow that its 420_only mode.
Do you think so ?
