For current vfio gfx, I think this is fine. For really limited HW
that might have clock gap, we could skip edid region support on it.

I'm not sure if we'd like to extend it for multiple display support?
As it seems edid blob definition is self-contained, maybe we'll only
have some region index reference added?
