drm/nouveau: support fetching LVDS EDID from ACPI
Based on a patch from Matthew Garrett.
Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>
Acked-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com>
It doesn't seem to revert cleanly, but the problem lies in these
two config entries:
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m
Adding a select for ACPI_VIDEO appears to be the best solution, and
is comparable to what is done in DRM_I915. Builds, boots, and appears to
work correctly.

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
