Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 043/273] drm/i915/dp: fall back to 18 bpp when sink capability is unknown

4.2.8-ckt5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@...el.com>

commit 5efd407674068dede403551bea3b0b134c32513a upstream.

Per DP spec, the source device should fall back to 18 bpp, VESA range
RGB when the sink capability is unknown. Fix the color depth
clamping. 18 bpp color depth should ensure full color range in automatic
mode.

The clamping has been HDMI specific since its introduction in
