The property name has changed, this gives me PAL:

$ modetest -M vc4 -s 45:720x576i -w 45:'TV mode':4


I have finally found a workaround for my kernel hangs.

Dom had a look at my kernel and found that the VideoCore was fine, and
he said this:

So when I got this on my 64-bit build:

[ 166.702171] SError Interrupt on CPU1, code 0x00000000bf000002 -- SError
[ 166.702187] CPU: 1 PID: 8 Comm: kworker/u8:0 Tainted: G W

...
[ 166.702606] bcm2711_get_temp+0x58/0xb0 [bcm2711_thermal]

I wondered if that reg read was stalled due to a clock being stopped.

Lo and behold, disabling runtime pm and keeping the vec clock running
all the time fixed it[1].

I don't know what the problem is, but at least I can now test this patchset.
