video: mxc_edid: Ignore unknown 'Vendor Specific Data' #43

Closed warped-rudi closed 6 years ago

The HDMI specification allows multiple vendor specific data blocks to be present in the EDID. While this was rather uncommon in HDMI 1.x, it is the default for HDMI 2.x ports. This patch ensures that only the block with the IEEE registration identifier of 'HDMI Licensing, LLC' is used to extract HDMI capabilities.

The patch is included in kernel 4.9.x. Closing it here.
