Oops. That's the bug here -- we're supposed to make it so that the
command line can override the quirks, but there's no way to use a quirk
given the mis-declared parameter.

This is untested...

Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Module parameters using '-1' as default must be
 signed type

Testing i915_panel_use_ssc for the default value was broken, so the
driver would never autodetect the correct value.
