Yes. If udl stores the EDID in struct udl_connector and later uses it in 
get_modes, the detect always has to run before get_modes. That logic is 
deeply hidden in the DRM probe helpers. So in any case, I want get_modes 
to read the EDID by itself.

In detect or detect_ctx, using drm_edid_read_custom() might do 
unnecessary USB transfers. Maybe not a problem per-se, but udl is 
already pushing the limits of its USB 2 bus. And the read function also 
leaves a warning about the all-zero EDID data in the kernel log every 
few seconds. Probably from [1].

The EDID probe helper can take this into account. If it's just the code 
at [2], it looks simple enough to re-use.
