[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 00/10] drm/i915: LVDS/eDP panel, EDID and fixed mode refactoring

Hi all, this is some LVDS/eDP panel refactoring and cleanup based on
Chris Wilson's earlier work and ideas last year [1]. I left out eDP lid
notifier based on Jesse's comments [2]; more of Jesse's old review is at
[3].

The main high level difference to Chris' patches is that intel_panel and
the cached EDID are placed in intel_connector rather than anywhere
else. This is because Daniel hinted that we might want to do some more
generic EDID caching (indeed, why keep reading the EDID if the display
has not been unplugged?). With the EDID and intel_panel in
intel_connector, we can add functions to query EDID and modes with
transparent caching and fallback to fixed mode when EDID is not
available.


BR,
Jani.
