oh, right just tested on T61 here, with VGA as primary display. So current driver
will still light up LVDS even it's disabled, but with this patch driver won't enable
it too. User will keep on with VGA primary display, and can only enable LVDS via reboot.
I'm not sure about the expected usage here.

Thank you for this comment. As the increase for asus eeebox like device, I think
adding quirk for everyone is really annoying...
