Well, it was suggested in a v1 we did post several months ago. I have not
looked up by whom and do not exactly remember the reasons.

We now simply thought that it is common style since dome dw-hdmi drivers
make use of it but some others don't. And we got it working without.

If it is not needed/requested by anyone, we can drop it from v3 (or add later).

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
