It's not clear why Ville added that check in the first place, so the best course of action is to remove the IGT test and get the discussion started there. Maxime

Ack, I'll work on removing those tests later today.

Document that DRM_MODE_PROP_IMMUTABLE must be set for the properties that are immutable by definition - e.g. ranges with min == max or enums with a single value. This matches the behaviour of the IGT tests, see kms_properties.c / validate_range_prop(), validate_enum_prop(), validate_bitmask_prop().
