This should be handled in DP's atomic_check. As usual, bonus point if
this is done via helpers that can be reused by other platforms.

These are two different issues. CDM should be checked in PDU (whether
the DPU can provide YUV data to the DP block).

Ugh. No. I was thinking about a `ycbcr420_allowed` flag in the struct
drm_bridge (to follow existing interlace_allowed) flag. But, this
might be not the best option. Each bridge can either pass through YUV
data from the previous bridge or generate YCbCr data on its own. So in
theory this demands two flags plus one flag for the encoder. Which
might be an overkill, until we end up in a situation when the driver
can not decide for the full bridge chain.
So let's probably ignore the TODO for the purpose of this series. Just
fix the usage of ycbcr420_allowed according to docs.
