That's enough worse. We now have a random gen check with no rationale
for why you suddenly believe all manufacturers have fixed their wiring.
There is no reason to believe that gen7 suddenly works is there? If
there is, why don't you mention it?

This gen7 check is to be on the safer side not to affect older paltforms.
For CHV/VLV, already the live status check is stable enough to determine
if we can read edid or not. In VPG production branches we have this
patch already available and it was tested with variety of monitors
extensively. So we now read the edid only during init and during hotplug.
For SKL, the "[PATCH] drm/i915: Handle HPD when it has actually
occurred" patch makes HPD stable enough.
So, we can rely on the edid read from init_connector instead of reading
edid on every detect call.
