Leaving the YCbCr vs RGB discussion aside, would this be better ?

 * Broadcast RGB (HDMI specific)
 *      Indicates the Quantization Range (Full vs Limited) used. The color
 *      processing pipeline will be adjusted to match the value of the
 *      property, and the Infoframes will be generated and sent accordingly.
 *
 *      The value of this property can be one of the following:
 *
 *      Automatic:
 *              The quantization range is selected automatically based on the
 *              mode according to the HDMI specifications (HDMI 1.4b - Section
 *              6.6 - Video Quantization Ranges).
 *
 *      Full:
 *              Full quantization range is forced.
 *
 *      Limited 16:235:
 *              Limited quantization range is forced. Unlike the name suggests,
 *              this works for any number of bits-per-component.
 *
 *      Property values other than Automatic can result in colors being off (if
 *      limited is selected but the display expects full), or a black screen
 *      (if full is selected but the display expects limited).
 *
 *      Drivers can set up this property by calling
 *      drm_connector_attach_broadcast_rgb_property().

Thanks!
Maxime
