From: Stylon Wang stylon.wang@amd.com Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2020 19:04:18 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] drm/amd/display: Fix ineffective setting of max bpc property
[Why] Regression was introduced where setting max bpc property has no effect on the atomic check and final commit. It has the same effect as max bpc being stuck at 8.
[How] Correctly propagate max bpc with the new connector state.
