Ugh. Actually we can't do this. I have a 85x machine myself that
has an LVDS panel but the VBT LVDS config bits set to 0 :(
Looking at the revision history in some VBT spec, I see a note
"0.92 | Add two definitions for VBT value of LVDS Active Config
(00b and 11b values defined) | 06/13/2005". Unfortunately no
information which VBT version this corresponds with.
I do have a 945gm machine with VBT version 134 that does have the
LVDS config bits correctly populated. I believe the 2005 date does
correspond pretty well with the release of 945 chipsets, so 945gm
might be the first platform where we can actually trust this.
So I think we either have to just scrap this patch or limit it
either to 945+ or VBT versions >= 134 (and we could refine that
later if we discover older versions that have the bits populated
already).
As to the bug report that started this whole thing, I think I'll
just go ahead an apply the DMI quirk patch as that's a 85x machine
and clearly we can't use the VBT information there.
