  just noticed the header file include/video/edid.h, which defines
video EDID info as simply:

  struct edid_info {
        unsigned char dummy[128];
  };

a couple months back, i had to mess with EDID info and defined a
detailed structure to manipulate EDID fields.  is it worth submitting
that as a patch and union'ing that with the above?  not a big deal for
me either way.

The KMS code already has detailed EDID structures in drm_edid.h, for
what it's worth.  We still need to get CEA extension bits ported over,
though.
