Although I don't have data to back this up, it is still just as valid as asumming port A is not eDP. This reverts to the behavior before a98d9c1 ("drm/i915/ddi: Rely on VBT DDI port info for eDP detection") except only when there is no VBT. Knowing whether a panel is eDP or not from the panel itself would have been nicer, but I cannot find any DPCD registers that provide this reliably.

Hate to be a nag, but your reply quoting is broken again. So much so
that patchwork tripped over [1]. Please try to get it fixed.
