This one mixes up lots of cleanups plus the EDID read with the power
changes.  I'm worried about the VDD smashing as well; we have lots of
bugs in the PPS hardware around VDD vs full PPS.  We need to make sure
appropriate delays are in place when transitioning from one to another.

In what paths are we trying to do accesses without power applied?
Looks like mainly edid?

I see the next patch handles the timing stuff, I assume it's ok.
