Ville Syrjälä 1b9bd09630 drm/i915: Do not create a new max_bpc prop for MST connectors
We're not allowed to create new properties after device registration
so for MST connectors we need to either create the max_bpc property
earlier, or we reuse one we already have. Let's do the latter apporach
since the corresponding SST connector already has the prop and its
min/max are correct also for the MST connector.

The problem was highlighted by commit 4f5368b554 ("drm/kms:
Catch mode_object lifetime errors") which results in the following
spew:
[ 1330.878941] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1554 at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mode_object.c:45 __drm_mode_object_add+0xa0/0xb0 [drm]

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
