The following patches are part of a larger series I've been working on
to get vga_switcheroo working on hybrid graphics Macbooks. Some of these
machines are not providing a VBT, and since the LVDS panel is connected
to the discrete GPU at boot we can't get a mode for the panel during
initialization. As a result the LVDS connector is not registered with
DRM, and graphics switching is not possible.

These patches fix this issue by registering the connector even if we
can't get a mode for the panel. If we don't have an EDID we check again
from the vga_switcheroo reprobe callback.

This is working, except for the framebuffer console which isn't
displaying when switched to the integrated GPU, which I still need to
debug. I'm not entirely sure whether or not this is the correct approach
though, so I wanted to go ahead and get some feedback on the patches now
to make sure I'm on the right track.

Thanks,
Seth
