I think I got the problem now. The patch you attached is correct.
http://lore.kernel.org/r/20200831083657.15600-1-jani.nikula@intel.com

But customer refer to below patch without "override_edid = true".
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/388309/?series=81121&rev=1

This is why they can't get EDID from mailbox #5 properly.
