From: Mario Kleiner <mario.kleiner.de@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit dec9de2ada523b344eb2428abfedf9d6cd0a0029 ] This fixes a problem found on the MacBookPro 2017 Retina panel: The panel reports 10 bpc color depth in its EDID, and the firmware chooses link settings at boot which support enough bandwidth for 10 bpc (324000 kbit/sec aka LINK_RATE_RBR2 aka 0xc), but the DP_MAX_LINK_RATE dpcd register only reports 2.7 Gbps (multiplier value 0xa) as possible, in direct contradiction of what the firmware successfully set up. This restricts the panel to 8 bpc, not providing the full color depth of the panel on Linux <= 5.5. Additionally, commit '4a8ca46bae8a ("drm/amd/display: Default max bpc to 16 for eDP")' introduced into Linux 5.6-rc1 will unclamp panel depth to its full 10 bpc, thereby requiring a eDP bandwidth for all modes that exceeds the bandwidth available and causes all modes to fail validation -> No modes for the laptop panel -> failure to set any mode -> Panel goes dark. This patch adds a quirk specific to the MBP 2017 15" Retina panel to override reported max link rate to the correct maximum of 0xc = LINK_RATE_RBR2 to fix the darkness and reduced display precision. Please apply for Linux 5.6+ to avoid regressing Apple MBP panel support.
