xorg.conf for 60Hz 4k Dell UP3214Q with the NVidia Proprietary Driver

It seems that Displayport 1.2 MST will never be properly supported on Linux, but it is possible to make it work perfectly with the some TwinView + Xinerama hackery.  I use the following with a Quadro K6000 and UP3214Q:

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0"
    Option         "Xinerama" "1"
EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier     "Monitor0"
    VendorName     "Unknown"
    ModelName      "Unknown"
    HorizSync       24.0 - 140.0
    VertRefresh     20.0 - 77.0
    Option         "DPMS"
    Option         "UseEDIDDpi" "FALSE"
    Option         "DPI" "120x120"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "metamodes" "DFP-4.9: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=1920x2160 },   DFP-4.8: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=1920x2160 }; DFP-4.9: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=1280x1440 },   DFP-4.8: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=1280x1440 }; DFP-4.9: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=960x1080 },    DFP-4.8: 1920x2160 { ViewPortIn=960x1080}; DFP-4.9: 1280x1440 { ViewPortIn=1280x1440 },   DFP-4.8: 1280x1440 { ViewPortIn=1280x1440 }; DFP-4.9: 960x1080 { ViewPortIn=960x1080 },     DFP-4.8: 960x1080 { ViewPortIn=960x1080}; DFP-4.9: 2560x1440 { ViewPortIn=2560x1440 },   NULL; DFP-4.9: 1920x1080 { ViewPortIn=1920x1080 },   NULL; DFP-4.9: 1920x1080_120 { ViewPortIn=1920x1080 }, NULL"
    Option     "TwinView"
    Option     "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" "1"
    Option     "TwinViewXineramaInfoOverride" "3840x2160+0+0"
    Option     "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP-4.9, DFP-4.8"
    Option     "TwinViewOrientation"      "LeftOf"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection
EndSection
