I think the following would be more readable:


if (conn_state->color_format && conn_state->color_format != 
DRM_COLOR_FORMAT_AUTO) {
    enum hdmi_colorspace hdmi_colorspace =
        drm_color_format_to_hdmi_colorspace(conn_state->color_format);

    return hdmi_compute_format_bpc(connector, conn_state, mode, max_bpc, 
hdmi_colorspace)
}

ret = ret = hdmi_compute_format_bpc(connector, conn_state, mode, max_bpc,
                                    HDMI_COLORSPACE_RGB);
