As I was writing the documentation patch, another thought stroke me wrt 
this patchset. Could you please add a check to DSI's mode_valid 
disallowing all modes if DSI_BPP > 8 & !widebus. Technically this check 
does not filter modes per se, but in my opinion ending up with empty 
modes list would be a better user experience compared to having a list 
of modes, from which none can be selected.

And if we ever get dynamic mode/dsc_config setup, this would allow us to 
filter unsupported modes via their DSC confiuration.

Abhinav, I remember, that you told me that adding drm_dsc_config to drm 
modes was forbidden already. However this looks like a valid reason to 
maybe restart the discussion: we want to filter modes basing on the 
corresponding DSC data rather than allowing the mode in mode_valid() and 
then failing it in the atomic_check().

Nit: there is no need to sign-off the cover letters.
