It turns out that because of the way things are wired up on vexpress, the
EDID is not really usable; so I wasn't planning to do anything about it.


I don't really know enough about this field to comment on whether it's
genuinely useful to have a specific binding for EDID.  If it's enough
to reference the appropriate I2C bus node from the display device node,
then I guess we don't necessarily need to worry about having a separate
binding.

If it makes no sense to attempt make EDID access fully generic, that
would sound like the right approach.

Cheers
