drm/i915: use GMBUS to manage i2c links
Use the GMBUS interface rather than direct bit banging to grab the EDID over DDC (and for other forms of auxiliary communication with external display controllers). The hope is that this method will be much faster and more reliable than bit banging for fetching EDIDs from buggy monitors or through switches, though we still preserve the bit banging as a fallback in case GMBUS fails. Based on an original patch by Jesse Barnes. Cc: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>
