[PATCH v2 0/4] Add support for fetching EDID from ACPI _DDC

Some laptops ship an EDID in the BIOS encoded in the _DDC method that
differs than the EDID directly on the laptop panel for $REASONS.

This is the EDID that is used by the AMD Windows driver, and so sometimes
different results are found in different operating systems.

This series adds a new DRM helper that will use acpi_video to fetch the
EDID.

On amdgpu when an eDP panel is found the BIOS
is checked first for an EDID and that used as a preference if found.

On nouveau it replaces the previous local function doing a similar role.

This does *not* use struct drm_edid as this will require more involved
amdgpu display driver work that will come separately as part of follow-ups

Mario Limonciello (4):
  ACPI: video: Handle fetching EDID that is longer than 256 bytes
  drm: Add drm_get_acpi_edid() helper
  drm/amd: Fetch the EDID from _DDC if available for eDP
  drm/nouveau: Use drm_get_acpi_edid() helper
