drm/amd/display: Don't restrict bpc to 8 bpc
This will let us pass the kms_hdr.bpc_switch IGT
test.
The reason the bpc restriction was required is
historical. At one point in time we were not falling
back to a lower bpc when we didn't have enough
bandwidth for the maximum bpc reported by a display.
This meant that we couldn't enable some high refresh
modes unless we limitted the bpc.
Starting with this patch the issue is fixed:
commit cbd14ae7ea93 ("drm/amd/display: Fix
incorrectly pruned modes with deep color")
This patch implemented a fallback mechanism if mode
validation failed at the max bpc. This means users
now automatically get all modes that can be supported
by at least 6 bpc. The driver will enable the mode
with the highest possible bpc that is supported by
the display.
v2:
- explain why this is no longer needed (Michel)
- refer to commit that fixed bpc fallback (Michel)
