CHV/BSW is not a DDI platform. This is not an exception for a CRB
platform or any platform for that matter. i915_pci.c should definitely
*not* be patched for this.

This patch is about parsing VBT data correctly. I don't know what you're
talking about, and why you think this is not the right way to fix the
parsing.

I pinged you about testing the patch on the bug you reported, I noted
the commit and closed the bug when we applied the patch. I gave you two
weeks in between. We applied the patch anyway because we believe it's
the right thing to do regardless of whether it actually fixes the bug
for you or not.

BR,
Jani.
