There was a discussion here with Hans Verkuil, somewhat 2-3 weeks ago,
he indicated that HDMI 1.4 spec was wrong in assuming that itc and
content-type bits can be used separately. Then it was decided offline
with Ville Sirjala that we're not going to create a separate property
for itc bit for a sake of simplicity. 
In short, the content type bits CN1..CN0 are not valid without itc bit.

If you mean those lines, where it initializes the avi infoframe
structure, it sets itc bit at the same time with content_type and from
the frame
encoding point of view those are still separate, so there is no
violation:

+       frame->content_type = HDMI_CONTENT_TYPE_GRAPHICS;
+       frame->itc = 0;

So we have a single property setting both at the same time, as
there is no point to have content-type without itc bit set.
Everytime property is set, those state bits are changed and then
encoded into frame.

+       frame.avi.content_type = connector->state->content_type;
+       frame.avi.itc = connector->state->it_content;

Well, there was plenty of discussion already, Ville, Hans and Daniel
gave recommendations and acknowleged those changes earlier, so I
thought that everything is clear here at least. Any comments are still
welcome of course, however I think I need to fix the stuff otherwise
that simple patch will hang here forever imho.

Version 8 just fixes the latest comment from Ville, that docs should
use string values in property description. Everytime I get any
comments, I fix them.
