    drm/i915: Force DPCD backlight mode for some Dell CML 2020 panels · ba518bbd
    Lyude Paul authored
    According to Dell, trying to match their panels via OUI is not reliable
    enough and we've been told that we should check against the EDID
    instead. As well, Dell seems to have some panels that are actually
    intended to switch between using PWM for backlight controls and DPCD for
    backlight controls depending on whether or not the panel is in HDR or
    SDR mode. Yikes.
    
    Regardless, we need to add quirks for these so that DPCD backlight
    controls get enabled by default, since without additional driver support
    that's the only form of brightness control that will work. Hopefully in
    the future we can remove these quirks once we have a better way of
    probing for this.
    
    Changes since v1:
    * Add one more EDID per Dell's request
    * Remove model number (which is possibly wrong) and replace with Dell
      CML 2020 systems
