I was readin the infoframe code a bit today, and noticed that g4x can't
transmit infoframes to more than one port, even though it can have two
HDMI/DVI ports.
So I decided to "fix" it by making it work on a first come, first served
basis. This at least makes it reasonable to have a HDMI + DVI monitors
hooked up to the same machine w/o the DVI clobbering the HDMI infoframes.
Tested quickly on an ELK w/ HDMI and DVI monitors attached.
If we allowed HDMI cloning, we'd have a similar problem on PCH platforms
since the DIP stuff lives on the transcoder. But we don't allow that currently
so I left the code alone. Also a quick gander at IBX spec says that
feeding multiple HDMI ports from the same transcoder isn't supported. But
I suspect that might be exactly because of this infoframe issue. I've not
asked for clarification on that, nor have I tried HDMI cloning on PCH yet.
Maybe I'll do that at some point if I get bored :)
