[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/lvds: Use i915.lvds_fixed_mode= as a last resort

Chris:

Can you specify the commit this patch was built on top of?  I'm still 
not totally fluent in git.  I did get it to apply cleanly but my build 
attempt failed due to errors which suggest stuff is needed from other 
commits missing from my build branch :-( For example, 
"drm_mode_parse_command_line_for_connector()" is missing.
