Subject: [ 07/28] drm/i915: do not ignore eDP bpc settings from vbt

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

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

From: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@...el.com>

commit 2f4f649a69a9eb51f6e98130e19dd90a260a4145 upstream.

There are laptops out there that need the eDP bpc from VBT. This is
effectively a revert of

commit 4344b813f105a19f793f1fd93ad775b784648b95

    drm/i915: ignore eDP bpc settings from vbt

but putting the VBT check after the EDID check to see them both in dmesg if
this clamps more than the EDID. We have enough history with bpc clamping to
warrant the extra debug info.
