Would slightly prefer if this was more like:

     if (dev_priv->bios_lvds_val)
             return !!(dev_priv->bios_lvds_val & LVDS_CLKB_POWER_MASK);

Since that way it eliminates some useless register reads in the normal 
case even for single-link.  Not going to insist on it though.

Looks really good otherwise, thanks!
