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.

Yea I am sorry I knew it would mess up the formatting. For some reason I was having issues
connecting to the server with mutt so had to reply using Outlook and that probably
messed it up really bad. But with my mutt client its usually fine.
