    drm/doc: Remove unused Broadcast RGB Property · 10af38d9
    Maxime Ripard authored
    The Broadcast RGB property has been documented as three separate entries
    so far, each with a different set of values.
    
    The first one is pretty much the generic one: it's used by i915 and vc4,
    and is the one used by all the compositors.
    
    The second one is used by the gma500 driver, and is a subset of the
    first one: it can have the values "Full" or "Limited 16:235", but lack
    the "Automatic" value.
    
    The third one however isn't used by any driver and documents the values
    "off", "auto" and "on".
    
    It's unclear where the last one comes from. It was first documented in
    commit 6c6a3996 ("Documentation: drm: describing drm properties
    exposed by various drivers") which adds a number of properties used by
    drivers, but without mentioning which driver was using what property.
    
    Grepping at the 6c6a3996 commit however, it looks like no driver is
    actually using it, and a quick look at the entire kernel history doesn't
    show any match either.
    
    At the time though, gma500 had an "audio" property used right next to
    Broadcast RGB that did have the "off", "auto" and "on" values in the
    same order.
    
    As such, it was probably a copy/paste or scripting error back then, and
    there's never been such property used in the kernel.
    
    Either way, it certainly hasn't been used in a decade or two so we can
    just get rid of it.
