commit c2bdb33b6dae2d3ad149204f67bea8cd81879384 Author: Hung-Te Lin hungte@chromium.org Date: Thu Apr 3 21:13:11 2014 +0800
edid: Relax EDID 1.3 requirements.
In E-EDID (EDID v1.3), Monitor Name (0xfc) and Monitor Range Limits (0xfd) are always required. However, some panels do not really have these fields. As a workaround (and since we don't really use these fields), we only print warning messages for that case.
