Right, a parallel function which returns the lvds_fp_timing structure
instead of pulling the data out of it. Just makes the code look more
like the existing stuff. And, if we need more data from the
lvds_fp_timing in the future, we'll have it available directly.

Reducing the chances for regressions is my primary concern here; most
people boot their machines with the lid open, so if we avoid the new
code in that case, we'll be more likely to not break things.
