[PATCH 1/2] drm/edid: Don't look for CEA data blocks in CEA ext block rev < 3

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala at linux.intel.com>

CEA ext block revisions 1 and 2 do not contain the data block
collection. Instead that section of the extension block is
marked as reserved for 8 byte timing descriptors. Revision 3
changed it to contain the CEA data block collection instead.

Most places that iterate the data blocks already check for
revision >= 3, but drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() and
drm_detect_monitor_audio() do not. So in theory when encountering
rev 1 or 2 CEA extension block they could end up misinterpreting
whatever data is in the reserved section as CEA data blocks.

Let's have cea_db_offsets() do the revision check so that the
callers don't even have worry about it.
