Thanks for the feedback. I got some questions below.

Can you give clarification on the 3 checks coming in between 
intel_hdmi_ycbcr420_config and intel_hdmi_compute_clock?

I guess this can be done before:

pipe_config->has_audio =
        intel_hdmi_has_audio(encoder, pipe_config, conn_state);

This one behaves differently whether or not RGB or YCbCr is used, but I guess 
does not change the required clock speed? I'm unsure about this however. If it 
has no effect on the clock I would call it after intel_hdmi_compute_clock:

pipe_config->limited_color_range =
        intel_hdmi_limited_color_range(pipe_config, conn_state);

I don't know what this actually does, but it doesn't seem to have to do 
something with color encoding so, like the has_audio check, it can be done 
before deciding on RGB or YCbCr420? Correct me if I'm wrong:

if (HAS_PCH_SPLIT(dev_priv) && !HAS_DDI(dev_priv))
        pipe_config->has_pch_encoder = true;

Currently it's check ycbcr420 then set. This would turn this around. Check 
first is more logical for my brain however.

what about something like this?

intel_hdmi_compute_output_format()
{
    if (drm_mode_is_420_only())
        crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420;
    else
        crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_RGB;

    ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock();
    if (ret) {
        if (crtc_state->output_format == INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420 ||
                !drm_mode_is_420_also() ||
                !connector->ycbcr_420_allowed)
            return ret;

        crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420;

        ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock()
        if (ret)
            return ret;
    }

    return 0;
}
