It looks like this comment from Darren has not been addressed (or
commented on). Can you discuss this with Darren and come to some sort
of solution please, otherwise applying this patch set is going to cause
a regression. Thanks.

Using the adj_mode->flags breaks a workaround I had done on BeagleBone Black
(tilcdc + tda998x) to resolve an issue with out of spec syncs from the
tlcdc. I invert the HSYNC in adj_mode->flags but don't want the tda998x to
really know that I am doing that so I use adj_mode in the tilcdc driver, and
mode here in the tda998x driver. The theory being adj_mode contains whatever
workarounds I need to do for the driving device and mode has the pristine
values that I want to send to the monitor. I would need to look if there is a
different way to solve this as I am guessing you are actually using adj_mode in
the manner it was intended.

Otherwise this patch series is working on BeagleBone Black - I have only tried
video so far (not audio).
