Those ports would correspond to different connectors, so I agree with
Neil, I don't think it's right to create a single property with all
modes and attach it to all analog output connectors.

If you want to support multiple analog outputs that have different
capabilities, this will need changes to drm_mode_create_tv_properties()
to allow creating multiple properties. If you don't want to do so now,
and prefer limiting support to devices where all ports support the same
modes (which includes devices with a single analog output), then the
modes should reflect what the device supports.
