As part of the EDID parser rework, I will introduce a common structure to 
describe video modes. Conversion functions between the common structures and 
struct drm_mode_modeinfo, struct fb_videomode and struct v4l2_bt_timings will 
be provided. Direct conversion between drm_mode_modeinfo and fb_videomode 
should then disappear.

This being said, we could introduce add you conversion functions in the 
meantime. I will then post a patch to remove them when the common video mode 
structure will be pushed to mainline :-)
