EDIDs have 32-bits worth of data which is intended to be used to uniquely identify the make/model of a panel. This has historically been used only internally in the EDID processing code to identify quirks with panels. We'd like to use this panel ID in panel drivers to identify which panel is hooked up and from that information figure out power sequence timings. Let's expose this information from the EDID code and also allow it to be accessed early, before a connector has been created. To make matching in the panel drivers code easier, we'll return the panel ID as a 32-bit value. We'll provide some functions for converting this value back and forth to something more human readable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
