Hmm. Good question. I guess currently they'll just keep using that
initial EDID (which may or may not come from the firmware EDID loader).
but overriding at runtime likely won't work.

For i915 that only happens for eDP/LVDS/DSI and such. And for those we
also parse the panel fixed mode from the EDID at probe time. So there
isn't much you could gain from runtime override unless we change the
entire implementation to not hang on to the fixed mode either.

We do have the ->force() hook for those cases.

After these patches the two are somewhat linked. The force status
will affect whether drm_get_edid() will even return anything (doesn't
matter if there's an override EDID or not), but the presence of the
override EDID won't force the connector status. To me that seems
like a perfectly sensible approach.
