3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Daniel Vetter <[email protected]> commit 4344b813f105a19f793f1fd93ad775b784648b95 upstream. This has originally been introduced to not oversubscribe the dp links in commit 885a5fb5b120a5c7e0b3baad7b0feb5a89f76c18 Author: Zhenyu Wang <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jan 12 05:38:31 2010 +0800 drm/i915: fix pixel color depth setting on eDP Since then we've fixed up the dp link bandwidth calculation code and should now automatically fall back to 6bpc dithering. So this is unnecessary. Furthermore it seems to break the new MacbookPro with retina display, hence let's just rip this out.
