Shashank Sharma 222ec1618c drm: Add aspect ratio parsing in DRM layer
Current DRM layer functions don't parse aspect ratio information
while converting a user mode->kernel mode or vice versa. This
causes modeset to pick mode with wrong aspect ratio, eventually
causing failures in HDMI compliance test cases, due to wrong VIC.

This patch adds aspect ratio information in DRM's mode conversion
and mode comparision functions, to make sure kernel picks mode
with right aspect ratio (as per the VIC).

Background:
This patch was once reviewed and merged, and later reverted due to
lack of DRM cap protection. This is a re-spin of this patch, this
time with DRM cap protection, to avoid aspect ratio information, when
the client doesn't request for it.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
