[PATCH 1/9] fbdev: Resurrect hooks to get EDID from firmware

["Antonino A. Daplas" <adaplas@gmail.com>]

    For the i386, code is already present in video.S that gets the
    EDID from the video BIOS.  Make this visible so drivers can also use
    this data as fallback when i2c does not work.

    To ensure that the EDID block is returned for the primary graphics adapter
    only, by check if the IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW flag is set.
