There used to be a priority list which display is preferably initia-
lized. It was in a weird notation LFP (local flat panel) would be
the eDP port and EFP2 (external flat panel 2) might be DDI2. Some-
where you have to set that EFP2 is preferred, I suppose. (All what
I remember from an Ivy Bridge VBT.)
