Ack, some non-optimized usermodes can do this.

Got it.

Answering behalf of kuogee but the two places are for different purposes:

1) When there is no EDID read

if (!dp_panel->edid) {

That case we should add the fail-safe mode as otherwise display will be 
blank for cases where there was nothing wrong with the monitor as such 
but the EDID read from aux failed for some reason. Even DRM does this 
but just not 640x480 here:

518 	if (count == 0 && (connector->status == connector_status_connected ||
519 			   connector->status == connector_status_unknown))
520 		count = drm_add_modes_noedid(connector, 1024, 768);


2) When there was a valid EDID but no 640x480 mode

This is the equipment specific case and the one even I was a bit 
surprised. There is a DP compliance equipment we have in-house and while 
validation, it was found that in its list of modes , it did not have any 
modes which chromebook supported ( due to 2 lanes ). But my 
understanding was that, all sinks should have atleast 640x480 but 
apparently this one did not have that. So to handle this DP compliance 
equipment behavior, we had to do this.

Thanks
