Subject: [003/139] drm: remove the EDID blob stored in the EDID property when it is disconnected

2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@...el.com>

commit 725398322d05486109375fbb85c3404108881e17 upstream.

Now the EDID property will be updated when the corresponding EDID can be
obtained from the external display device. But after the external device
is plugged-out, the EDID property is not updated. In such case we still
get the corresponding EDID property although it is already detected as
disconnected.
