When encoder validation of a display mode fails, retry with less bandwidth heavy YCbCr420 color mode, if available. This enables some HDMI 1.4 setups to support 4k60Hz output, which previously failed silently. AMDGPU had nearly the exact same issue. This problem description is therefore copied from my commit message of the AMDGPU patch. On some setups, while the monitor and the gpu support display modes with pixel clocks of up to 600MHz, the link encoder might not. This prevents YCbCr444 and RGB encoding for 4k60Hz, but YCbCr420 encoding might still be possible. However, which color mode is used is decided before the link encoder capabilities are checked. This patch fixes the problem by retrying to find a display mode with YCbCr420 enforced and using it, if it is valid.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
