[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Allow parsing of variable size child device entries from VBT

VBT version 196 increased the size of common_child_dev_config. The parser
code assumed that the size of this structure would not change.

So now, instead of checking for smaller size, check that the VBT entry is
not too large and memcpy only child_dev_size amount of data, leaving any
trailing entries as zero. If this is not good enough for the future,
we can always sprinkle extra version checks in there.
