Is any of this needed anymore now that we do an extended probe? I
think the original null edid patch was just papering over the actual
issue which was the need for a full edid header probe.

What is this hunk for? It's not related to the problematic DDIA
interface which is digital only. It seems like it will just spam the
log for VGA monitors with faulty EDIDs.

Is this really needed? What is it preventing? Doesn't the full EDID
header probe alleviate the need for this? My concern is that we will
remove the ddc bus on connectors that are valid just because the user
probed with no monitor connected or a monitor with a faulty edid.
Then all future probes will fail to get an EDID since the bus is gone.

This part can probably be removed now.
