Well, not yet, no. Like I said, there's no code at all yet for tweaking
SDVO LVDS.

This is, at best, stretching the truth.

I suppose in this case you'd have to hope that the SDVO init code at
POST time set up the device correctly, so that if you called
SDVO_CMD_GET_LVDS_PANEL_INFORMATION it'd tell you the truth. But that
assumes that the SDVO init code does that, and it might not, I don't
actually know; Intel doesn't release the docs for that publicly (or even
under NDA unless you're an OEM).
That or we'd need to add a way of passing in a VBT from the kernel
command line, like ACPI DSDT override does.
