I still say that not even this should be part of the DRM mode API to
userspace. The hint that you're changing the user API is that you're
modifying a header file below a 'uapi' directory.
The settings of double scan, sync polarity etc are all part of the
display mode specification (check CEA-861 documents). Things like
pixel clock polarity are not part of the mode specification, they're
a property of the display itself and are independent of the mode.
Therefore, they should not be part of struct drm_mode_modeinfo.
