[PATCH v2 1/9] drm/edid: Clarify why we only accept the "range limits only" descriptor

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The current comment fails to clarify why we only accept
the "range limits only" variant of the range descriptor.
Reword it to make some actual sense.
