Hi,

This series introduces stereo 3D modes support and is split in 3 chunks:

1. 3 kernel patches to parse the 3D_present flag of the HDMI CEA vendor block, to expose 3D formats flags in modes and to add a new property on connectors supporting stereo 3D,

I'm not convinced by the approach of using a stereo mode flag as a connector property for the simple reason that property has different lifetimes to the associated mode and userspace needs some form of synchronisation in order to be able to switch stereo modes on the fly without corruption. -Chris
