Ah OK. Is it different versions of the controller HW IP block that
support the different HDMI versions, or is it some kind of
fusing/configuration with the same HW block? If different versions of
HW, wouldn't this difference usually be represented by different
compatible values, that indicate the exact HW version? I guess if the
only difference really is just the HDMI support and there are no other
bugs/quirks/enhancements, a separate property might make sense.
