AFAICT it's just slightly different timings for fun.  I don't think
they go low enough to reduce the DP lane count... maybe there's just a
mismatch between their hard coded panel timings and the ones reported
by the EDID.  Not sure which to trust...  Kristian can you post the
timings you see here?  Both the BIOS timings and the EDID ones?

So I'm stuck here too, I think it's a rare case though.
