This looks like two patches. To the best of my knowledge a system cannot
have both LVDS and eDP, so that part looks sane - the only danger being
ghost LVDS. And checking for LVDS in eDP init seems like the easiest way
to pull it all together, but it does depend upon LVDS being completed
first. That's an issue in a parallel future, the dependency will have to
be tracked.

The second issue of using pps too early looks trivial... That part I can
