drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() should do the trick :)

No, not that.  The "proto" field you're setting set "5" in the previous
hunk when dual-link is requested is actually
NV907D_SOR_SET_CONTROL_PROTOCOL_DUAL_TMDS - which is what is parsed here
with (ctrl & 0x00000f00).

So, instead of "if (pclk >= 165000)" here, you should just be able to do
"(*conf == 5)".

I have no idea why the BIOS tables identify the dual-link data with
0x0105 instead of 0x0005, when "5" already indicates DUAL_TMDS - but anyway.
