+Subject: [PATCH 2408/4131] drm/amd/display: DC I2C review
+
+While reviewing I2C in DC identified a few places. Added a couple to the
+TODO list.
+
+1) Connector info read
+
+See get_ext_display_connection_info
+
+On some boards the connector information has to be read through a
+special I2C channel. This line is only used for this purpose and only on
+driver init.
+
+2) SCDC stuff
+
+This should all be reworked to go through DRM's SCDC code. When this is
+done some unnecessary I2C code can be retired as well.
+
+3) Max TMDS clock read
+
+See dal_ddc_service_i2c_query_dp_dual_mode_adaptor
+
+This should happen in DRM as well. I haven't checked if there's
+currently functionality in DRM. If not we can propose something.
+
+4) HDMI retimer programming
+
+Some boards have an HDMI retimer that we need to program to pass PHY
+compliance.
+
+1 & 3 might be a good exercise if someone is looking for things to do.
+
+v2: Merge dp_dual_mode_adaptor TODO
