I'm not sure the UNKNWON value really buys us anything. But I suppose we
could just do this:

        general = find_section(bdb, BDB_GENERAL_FEATURES);
        if (general) {
                dev_priv->vbt.int_tv_support = general->int_tv_support;
-               dev_priv->vbt.int_crt_support = general->int_crt_support;
+               if (HAS_DDI(dev_priv) || IS_VALLEYIEW(dev_priv))
+                       dev_priv->vbt.int_crt_support = general->int_crt_support;

The other option is to make it check the version. But I'm not sure if
that's entirely safe. For extra paranoia I guess we could do both,
just in case there's some early VLV/HSW out there with <155 VBT
version.
