Yes, that would normally work.  The problem is that the PHY PLLs cannot
provide pixel clocks for resolutions above 4K at 60Hz (hence limited to
HDMI 2.0), while VOP2 on RK3588 supports up to 8K at 60Hz (making use of
HDMI 2.1).

On top of that, the 2 PLLs are shared between 3 out of the 4 video ports
of the display controller.  There is quite a bit of complexity in
downstream driver to handle all possible usecases - see [1] for a brief
description on how is that supposed to work.
