Well drm_edid.c is the only one accessing these tables anyway, so it
they would be in drm_edid.c and static, you could still use
ARRAY_SIZE().

Not that I really like the idea of polluting drm_edid.c with all these
massive tables.

Too bad cpp doesn't support this kind of thing:
#if __BASE_FILE__ != "drm_edid.c"
#error ...
#endif
