The following patches are part of a larger series I've been working on to get vga_switcheroo working on hybrid graphics Macbooks. Some of these machines are not providing a VBT, and since the LVDS panel is connected to the discrete GPU at boot we can't get a mode for the panel during initialization. As a result the LVDS connector is not registered with DRM, and graphics switching is not possible. These patches fix this issue by registering the connector even if we can't get a mode for the panel. If we don't have an EDID we check again from the vga_switcheroo reprobe callback. This is working, except for the framebuffer console which isn't displaying when switched to the integrated GPU, which I still need to debug. I'm not entirely sure whether or not this is the correct approach though, so I wanted to go ahead and get some feedback on the patches now to make sure I'm on the right track.
