Re: [PATCH] drm/i915/display: Return correct err code for bpc < 0

Hi Ville and Ankit,

I actually do not think this is a problem with the DSC logic, but it
is a problem with the intel_dp_link_compute_config() where we should
do something if max_bpp is 0 instead of just returning a -EINVAL
directly.
My question here:
- In case of PCON, yuv format, is it a valid case to have max bpp set to 0?
- This is where I am seeing it as set to 0
- If it isnt then the problem is probably where it computes max bpp
for hdmi case for yuv format
