Subject: [ 09/69] drm/nouveau: default to 8bpc for non-LVDS panels if EDID isnt
 useful

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@...hat.com>

commit c8435362f2211086b34ce871fa9c3fcc7ca79ff9 upstream.

A few reports of bad behaviour since the autodetection defaulted to 6bpc,
lets fix this.
