Turns out I was wrong about adding the property to this file, Daniel
says it's deprecated in f0f0657b108c ("drm/doc: Drop "content type" from
the legacy kms property table").

If you look at the Fixes commit it adds a kernel doc HDMI property
section and TV should probably have something like that.
