The *real* problems with that commit are:
1) It uses drm_edid_override_connector_update() *at all*. Its
documentation says:
Only to be used from drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
as a fallback for when DDC probe failed during drm_get_edid()
and caused the override/firmware EDID to be skipped.
2) It messes with edid_blob_ptr directly. All drivers should stop doing
that. It just complicates all the logic in the overrides and the
property updates.
