I have no idea if eDP panels would support even the 640x480
fallback mode. My hunch is no, but might be interesting to
test if someone is willing to risk their eDP panel...
I have a feeling we should also just remove the current VBT
fixed mode fallback. I think the Windows driver has no such
thing, though should probably double check that.

Yeah. Though I'm not sure if we'd want to go with
if (edp) or if (fixed_mode) in those cases. I have
occasionally pondered about exposing a user configurable
fixed_mode for external displays as well. Would let users
run their external display with a specific mode and
use the pfit to scale things instead of relying on the
display having a decent scaler.
