I've checked with the SDVO spec and the ddc bus switch command uses a
bitflag array, and bit 0 (i.e. 1) is used for the spd rom. So the code
seems to be correct.
But while looking through the git history I've noticed that this code got
added before we've figured out the vbios sdvo ddc pin mappings game, so
I'm inclined to just rip this out. Especially since we start at the ddc
that does _not_ read our edid and don't unconditionally test all 3 ddc
buses, potentially leaving out bus 3&2. Does anyone know why we've needed
this or maybe even have the hw?
For reference, the commit that added this code originally is
commit 7c3f0a2726fed78e0e0afe3b6fc3c1f5b298e447

drm/i915: try another possible DDC bus for the SDVO device with
multiple outputs
