Just re-raising this.  I suspect we can't support SDVO LVDS correctly
without knowing more here.  In particular:

- what "panel type" means in struct bdb_sdvo_lvds_options
- what the "misc bits" mean in same
- whether the BIOS AIM code can be relied on to have set
depth/type/channel correctly or if that's the driver's job
