[PATCH v2] drm/i915/display: Replace bw_constrained with max_link_bpp_x16
From: George Karagounis
Date: Thu Sep 24 2026 - 13:33:42 EST
In intel_crt.c (VGA displays) and intel_lvds.c (old laptop displays),
both files were using a legacy boolean flag crtc_state->bw_constrained
to guess if the display link was bandwidth limited.
To fix this, replaced the bw_constrained boolean checks with direct
comparisons against the max_link_bpp_x16 fixed-point API.

v2: Remove the dead bw_constrained flag definition and writer entirely,
as pointed out by the sashiko bot reviewer
