Yes, all the connectors that read out an EDID - vs. the TV connector
which doesn't - is handled by the next patch. And yes, the connectors
which don't access the HW in the get_modes hook doesn't need this check.
Btw, I think all the connectors should work - eventually - in this way:
access the HW only in the encoder detect hook and from the get_modes
hook only return the detected mode list w/o accessing the HW. DP-SST and
HDMI do already the correct thing wrt. this.
