Iirc I just said (well, I hope that's what I said, didn't check with past
self) that the current semantics we expose work like that. They might not
be sensible.
But anyway, I guess we need to tackle both the override edid and the
connector status forcing in one patch approach, and I guess doing it here
in drm_do_get_edid is indeed sensible. And if we can get away with it,
deriving the force state from the override edid (if present), but not the
other way round, would be good. Or at least the dvi-d vs. dvi-i part of
connector forcing (which isn't something we use on i915, but which
exists).
