Imo, this should be fixed in the probe helpers. Something like the below
might make sense:


diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c
index e714b5a7955f..d3b9dc7535da 100644

It should do what you want it to do, still allow us to override force
state manually and also fix things up for every, not just i915-hdmi. Also,
much smaller patch.

Only downside is that we need acks from other driver maintainers, since
essentially it's a behaviour change. Thus far you had to both inject the
edid and override status if your sink was totally busted. Now just
injecting edid will be enough.

Cheers, Daniel
