Re: [stable] [PATCH 1/3] drm: Separate EDID Header Check from EDID Block Check

From: Thomas Reim rdratlos@yahoo.co.uk

Provides function drm_edid_header_is_valid() for EDID header check
and replaces EDID header check part of function drm_edid_block_valid()
by a call of drm_edid_header_is_valid().
This is a prerequisite to extend DDC probing, e. g. in function
radeon_ddc_probe() for Radeon devices, by a central EDID header check.

Tested for kernel 2.35, 2.38 and 3.0

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the stable kernel tree. Please read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt for how to do this properly.

Same goes for 2/3 and 3/3 as well.
