Sorry, should have mentioned this in the commit log. This in fact is a
hacked version of my office monitor. This patch is more meant as a usage
example and not for upstream. I don't know yet if it's even acceptable
to put edid data into the devicetree. I saw some discussion about it,
but also about some generic display description, which I would prefer.

BTW is there a more convenient tool than a hex editor around to generate
edid data? I only found some windows tools
