I meant internally in the dw-hdmi driver, not in the glue layer.

That's the highest version supported by the DW HDMI TX controller, and is an
intrinsic property of the IP core. With the above code, a sink newer than the
DW HDMI TX will incorrectly be told that the source supports the same version
as the sink.
