Assuming I'm applying this correctly your adding this to the "lcd
panel properties" section. That doesn't make sense to me. I think we
already have a section for hdmi properties somewhere, would fit better
there.

This should also contain a bit more about how this is supposed to
work, how it's set up from a driver pov (sprinkle links all over it)
and how userspace it supposed to use it.

I think since this is a using a rather complicated struct I think we
need to fully document that structure too. Atm uapi/drm_mode.h isn't
pulled into anywhere, so we need to fix that (a new chapter titled
"Userspace API Structures" in drm-uapi.rst would be good, cross-links
will work).

Uh, is this even used? It would be a bug if so, since the state
userspace can set must be stored in drm_connector_state, not in
drm_connector. Only read-only stuff can be in there.

Please don't just blindly type docs, try to make sure that what you're
documenting actually makes sense. Also, should have been a clear sign
that you've forgotten to document one of the properties in the
enumeration above.
