No, we haven't exposed that yet.  On some chipsets it may mean
configuring colorspace conversion in the pipe code.  Paulo has been
looking at some of this...

There is a way to configure the gamut to be compressed (default) or
expanded (up to 255).  But that's not exposed either.

There is some 30 bit support in place, but not 36bpp, which is what
HDMI sinks generally want.  Doing that properly involves doing gamut
expansion, since most sources aren't 36bpp unless you have very
specific kinds of source data (e.g. custom HD DVD movies or something).
