[Nouveau] [PATCH] drm/nouveau/disp: Support more modes by checking with lower bpc

Karol Herbst kherbst at redhat.com
Thu Mar 30 22:39:38 UTC 2023


This allows us to advertise more modes especially on HDR displays.

Fixes using 4K at 60 modes on my TV and main display both using a HDMI to DP
adapter. Also fixes similiar issues for users running into this.
