Matthew Garrett e92a716240 ACPI: Export EDID blocks to the kernel
The ACPI spec includes a provision for hardware to provide EDID via the
ACPI video extension. In the KMS world it's necessary for a way to obtain
this from within the kernel. Add a function that either returns the EDID
for the provided ACPI display ID or the first display of the provided type.
Also add support for ensuring that devices with legacy IDs are supported.

Zhao Yakui 86e437f077 ACPI: Add the reference count to avoid unloading ACPI video bus twice
Sometimes both acpi video and i915 driver are compiled as modules.
And there exists the strict dependency between the two drivers.
The acpi video bus will be unloaded in course of unloading the i915 driver.
If we unload the acpi video driver, then the kernel oops will be triggered.

Add the reference count to avoid unloading the ACPI video bus twice.
The reference count should be checked before unregistering the acpi video bus.
If the reference count is already zero, it won't unregister it again.
And after the acpi video bus is already unregistered, the reference count
will be set to zero.

Matthew Garrett 3b1c1c1118 drm/i915: Unregister ACPI video driver when exiting
The i915 DRM triggers registration of the ACPI video driver on load. It
should unregister it at unload in order to avoid generating backtraces on
being reloaded.

Matthew Garrett 74a365b3f3 ACPI: Populate DIDL before registering ACPI video device on Intel
Intel graphics hardware that implements the ACPI IGD OpRegion spec
requires that the list of display devices be populated before any ACPI
video methods are called. Detect when this is the case and defer
registration until the opregion code calls it. Fixes crashes on HP
laptops.
