Thanks for the heads up.

Actually I still haven't tackled HDMI on ti-linux-5.10.y, I only found
it by comparing the .config from the working 4.19 branch and from 5.10
and noticed the config option has disappeared.

My current problem is that omapdrm does not populate /dev/fb0 (perhaps
due to a similar reason) and the VIP driver apparently just not present
on the 5.10.y branch.
