This should be in two separate patches, with kunit tests for the helper
you create.

More importantly, why do you need a helper for this at all? If it's only
useful in a single driver for now, then just add it to that driver.

It's also not clear to me why you need to mess with the modes at all. If
the mode is unreliable and needs to be overloaded, then just ignore the
EDIDs entirely and report the mode you have hardcoded in the driver. You
then don't need to play with the flags at all.
