I found only one driver that don't use this helper: vmwgfx. But,
this driver does not seem to use EDID fields, it has a list of
preferred video modes and manually adds these modes.
So, I think it is safe to add this in the helper as long as
future drivers that use EDID use this helper also. Maybe a small
comment about this should be added in the helper declaration.
