Hi,

will this be forcing all drivers using these helpers to default to max bpc = 8?

I believe at least amdgpu would disagree. The defaults were changed in
the recent years, IIRC to avoid extra modesets during boot-up when
desktops prefer highest possible bpc for a mode.

The 'max bpc' property itself is a manual workaround for faulty
hardware that does not correctly indicate the max bpc it can handle. It
should not default to be a limiting factor.

Is it not bits per channel?
