I have an old branch implementing the margin properties:
https://github.com/vsyrjala/linux.git hdmi_margins_3

but it got stalled due to the scaler code being in a very poor state.
I started sketching some reworks there, but that got put on the
backburner due to other stuff:
https://github.com/vsyrjala/linux.git scaler_rework_2

I might have somehting more recent than that locally, but I'd have
to trawl through my branches to check what's the latest state.
