The question is whether the opregion EDID should be used for override or
fallback. The patch at hand is kind of neither, it just unconditionally
adds the modes from the opregion EDID to the connector. For your
display, they apparently end up also being the only mode(s), with one of
them being used as the fixed mode. (Otherwise the orientation quirk
wouldn't work.)

What does drm_get_edid() return for you? Maybe we should do something
like this instead:
 
 	mutex_lock(&dev->mode_config.mutex);
 	edid = drm_get_edid(connector, &intel_dp->aux.ddc);
+	if (!edid)
+		edid = intel_opregion_get_edid(intel_connector);
 	if (edid) {
 		if (drm_add_edid_modes(connector, edid)) {
 			drm_connector_update_edid_property(connector, edid);

This way we'll actually use all the other bits in the EDID, not just the
modes. And if it needs to become override rather than fallback, the
solution is:

 	mutex_lock(&dev->mode_config.mutex);
-	edid = drm_get_edid(connector, &intel_dp->aux.ddc);
+	edid = intel_opregion_get_edid(intel_connector);
+	if (!edid)
+		edid = drm_get_edid(connector, &intel_dp->aux.ddc);
 	if (edid) {
 		if (drm_add_edid_modes(connector, edid)) {
 			drm_connector_update_edid_property(connector, edid);

In any case, I think it's just plain wrong to use both the display and
opregion EDIDs at the same time. It's probably all around safer to start
with fallback.

Please find some further comments inline.

With what I proposed this would become:

struct edid *intel_opregion_get_edid(struct intel_connector *intel_connector)

I don't think ->override_edid can actually be true at this point.

In general, it's useless to try to debug print kmalloc errors.

Please just say the EDID is invalid. "Cannot validate" seems like we
weren't able to check.

The above parts would go away with my proposal.

It's customary to have [CONNECTOR:%d:%s] as the first thing in the debug
log; it's easier to look for in dmesg.
