It's interesting that none of those actually give a real reason why
unsigned int shouldn't be used for variables called i.

I would argue that when you do things like make a loop iterate backwards
you better know what variable types you're dealing with.
Anyway, this is clearly very subjective, so feel free to let this be int
if you prefer.

Oh, you were talking about only the vfreqs. Yes, you're right in that
case.
Unless if at some point in the future we do end up with monitors where
the vrefresh rate no longer fits into u8... I guess manufacturers might
be discouraged from building those just based on the fact that you can't
store the values in EDID.
