And in v1 you explained that it is _not_ about bpp...

I feel like "For VIDEO mode" and "For CMD mode" reads more naturally, no
need for "the", but I don't know the grammar rule that states so.

Nit: well, refresh rate is already part of this calculation (that's how
drm_display_mode's clock member comes to be, and how drm_mode_vrefresh()
figures out fps after the fact).  It's all about the per-CMD transfer
overhead in bytes that is currently not part of the calculation.

Should this be pixels (1 pixel), not bytes, just like in the compressed
scenario?

Okay, so one can not send more than 6 pixels even if the bpp is less
than 8, is what this comes down to.

Nit: note that this is only for VIDEO mode, h_total and ha_end are
accurately unused in the CMDmode path below.
