Disabling 444 and 422 is an option. Though, they work on my setup at
4k@60p.

In general, it often a challenge to get 4k@60p properly with any of
these small board devices. 4k@60p works only using a short HDMI cable
for me. Also, not everyone aware that the micro HDMI adapter needs to be
compliant with HDMI 2.0 for 4k@60, that's why 300MHz is the default.

Will be nice to have the good EDID enabled by default in the defconfig.
Dealing with problems like that will be a headache for majority of
people, IMO.
