Mario Kleiner 24cdeed2d3 drm/i915/dp: Revert "drm/i915/dp: fall back to 18 bpp when sink capability is unknown" ... commit 196f954e25 upstream. This reverts commit 013dd9e038 ("drm/i915/dp: fall back to 18 bpp when sink capability is unknown") This commit introduced a regression into stable kernels, as it reduces output color depth to 6 bpc for any video sink connected to a Displayport connector if that sink doesn't report a specific color depth via EDID, or if our EDID parser doesn't actually recognize the proper bpc from EDID. Affected are active DisplayPort->VGA converters and active DisplayPort->DVI converters. Both should be able to handle 8 bpc, but are degraded to 6 bpc with this patch. The reverted commit was meant to fix Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105331 A followup patch implements a fix for that specific bug, which is caused by a faulty EDID of the affected DP panel by adding a new EDID quirk for that panel. DP 18 bpp fallback handling and other improvements to DP sink bpc detection will be handled for future kernels in a separate series of patches. Please backport to stable.
