I don't see this buying us anything. All you get is two backtraces
instead of one.

if (WARN_ON(!raw_edid))
	return false;

would make more sense if we want tolerate programmer errors a bit
better. I'm not a huge fan of such defensive programming though
since it tends to make it less clear what the function actually
expects from you. But here the WARN_ON() would at least make it
clear that it's not meant to happen.
