As per the HDMI 1.3 and 1.4 spec, "deep color modes" are color depths
greater than 24 bits per pixel. The spec explicitly states, "All Deep
Color modes are optional though if an HDMI Source or Sink supports any
Deep Color mode, it shall support 36-bit mode." (6.2.4 Color Depth
Requirements).
I came across a monitor (Acer X233H) that supplies an illegal EDID where
DC_30bit is set and DC_36bit is not set. The end result is badly garbled
output because the driver is sending 36BPP when the monitor can't handle
it.
Much of the intel hardware is incapable of operating at any
bit-per-component setting outside of 8 or 12, and the spec seems to
imply that if any deep color support is found, then it is a safe
assumption to operate at 12.
This patch ensures that the EDID is within the spec (specifically, that
DC_36bit is set) before committing to going forward with any deep
colors. There was already a check for this EDID inconsistency, but it
resulted only in a warning and did not fall-back to safer settings.
