It's always confusing to me whether something has to be in the .mode_valid
for drm_mode_config helper function or for the drm_crtc_helper_funcs. This
driver is still using the simple-KMS at this point so that will be in the
udl_simple_display_pipe_mode_valid() if should be the latter.

In this case since it seems to be about a pixel limit, it might make sense
to have this constraint for the DRM mode config. But since it depends on the
{h,v}display, I thought that needed to ask if instead should be for the CRTC.

Any in case,
