I really think we should make the exposure of this new 2.0
features optional. Change the drivers and drm core first and then
move to userland. We can't expect user to deploy the changes at
the same time we apply them to kernel.

At the time I tested 420 in full-hd, I think. In order to test
vcb parsing. But yes, normal tv's wont have this kind of strange
EDIDs. And, modedb will increase even more in the next months: 8k
is almost out :)
