Not sure users trying to use it is a good argument - they enthusiastically try it on gen5+ too (where we don't frob the right pipe bits to make the frequency switch) and on machines without lvds panels. I expect a dummy i915.save_me_some_power option would get enabled too ;-) Btw for the vblank work I think the crucial bit is that we want seamless DRRS (which edp drrs checks in the vbt) and lvds drrs never did check that. At least that might explain why it flickered often badly.
