Please document it.  This is a general rule when implementing
library-style functions.

It should validate edid[2] first, methinks.  If it's some crazy value
then this loop will run off into the weeds.

It's unusual to use memmove() for a copy which cannot overlap -
memcpy() would be more typical.  memmove() works though.

Without an EXPORT_SYMBOL(), other modules cannot use this function?
