--- Comment #6 from Jani Nikula (jani.nikula at intel.com) ---
The firmware EDID handling was moved at a lower level in the stack to be a more
transparent replacement for the display EDID. Without this, many features were
erroneously parsed from the display EDID, which was in conflict with the
firmware EDID.

This means that any time the driver would read the EDID, it gets loaded as the
firmware EDID.

It's arguably something that should be improved in the driver to not keep
reading the EDID so many times over, whether it's display or firmware EDID.
