I think the goal is good, not convinced by the implementation. First, i915->display.vbt.data.foo is just too much depth. It was borderline too much before, but now it definitely is. Second, whichever place allocates some stuff should also be responsible for freeing it. I don't like the idea that you have different places allocating and then you have a combined cleanup to take care of the alternatives. Possibly the first thing to do would be to put intel_bios_init() in charge of picking the VBT. Stop looking at opregion directly in intel_bios.c, and instead abstract that away. Also move firmware EDID loading there. Move debugfs there. Etc. The opregion code could still figure out what its idea of VBT is, but intel_bios_init() would the place to ask opregion code about it only if needed.
