Yeah, removing the property entirely seems like an OKish solution since
userspace can just stuff that information into the mode flags instead.
The only slight concern is that someone's setup might depend on the
property, and now we're removing it.

Well, "real" isn't quite the right term. It's still a user specified
thing, which means the user can ask for somehting the display didn't
even advertise. Which is fine as such, however since the AVI infoframe
lacks the capability to transmit these new aspect ratios we have a bit
of problem on our hands if the user asks for something we can't even
tell the display to do. I guess we would just need to return an error
to the user in that case.
