Would it be possible to include a version of this patch's Changelog as a file
under Documentation/fixing-broken-edid.txt or something, so people don't have
to go and find the git commit log to know things like "you need to run
dos2unix"?  Be a shame to have a changelog that does such a good job of
documenting what you need to do, and have it lost in git...
