The driver was originally added in commit fcfa0ddc18ed ("drm/bridge:
Drivers for megachips-stdpxxxx-ge-b850v3-fw (LVDS-DP++)"). I tried to
look up the discussion, but didn't find anyone questioning the EDID
reading part.
Why does it not use drm_get_edid() or drm_do_get_edid()?
I don't know where client->addr comes from, so I guess it could be
different from DDC_ADDR, rendering drm_get_edid() unusable.
There's also the comment:
/* Yes, read the entire buffer, and do not skip the first
* EDID_LENGTH bytes.
*/
But again, there's not a word on *why*.
Maybe we could just use drm_do_get_edid()? I'd like drivers to migrate
away from their own EDID parsing and validity checks, including stop
using drm_edid_block_valid(). (And long term switch to drm_edid_read(),
struct drm_edid, and friends, but this is the first step.)

I haven't even tried to compile this, and I have no way to test
this. Apologies for the long Cc list; I'm hoping someone could explain
the existing code, and perhaps give this approach a spin.
