drm/edid: Allow HDMI infoframe without VIC or S3D
Appedix F of HDMI 2.0 says that some HDMI sink may fail to switch from 3D to 2D mode in a timely fashion if the source simply stops sending the HDMI infoframe. The suggested workaround is to keep sending the infoframe even when strictly not necessary (ie. no VIC and no S3D). HDMI 1.4 does allow for this behaviour, stating that sending the infoframe is optional in this case. The infoframe was first specified in HDMI 1.4, so in theory sinks predating that may not appreciate us sending an uknown infoframe their way. To avoid regressions let's try to determine if the sink supports the infoframe or not. Unfortunately there's no direct way to do that, so instead we'll just check if we managed to parse any HDMI 1.4 4k or stereo modes from the EDID, and if so we assume the sink will accept the infoframe. Also if the EDID contains the HDMI 2.0 HDMI Forum VSDB we can assume the sink is prepared to receive the infoframe. v2: Fix getting has_hdmi_infoframe from display_info Always fail constructing the infoframe if the display possibly can't handle it Cc: Shashank Sharma <shashank.sharma@intel.com> Cc: Andrzej Hajda <a.hajda@samsung.com> Cc: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com> Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Shashank Sharma <shashank.sharma@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171113170427.4150-3-ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com
