Subject[RFC PATCH 1/2] drm/panel-edp: Allow overriding the eDP EDID
Date
I found that writing to `/sys/kernel/debug/dri/*/eDP*/edid_override`
wasn't working for me. I could see the new EDID take effect in
`/sys/class/drm/card*-eDP*/edid` but userspace wasn't seeing it..

The problem was that panel-edp was caching the EDID that it read and
using that over and over again.

Let's change panel-edp to look at the EDID that's stored in the
connector. This is still a cache, which is important since this
function is called multiple times and readin the EDID is slow, but
this property is automatically updated by drm_get_edid() (which reads
the EDID) and also updated when writing the edid_override in debugfs.

Fixes: 63358e24ee79 ("drm/panel: panel-simple: Cache the EDID as long as we retain power")
