Add new functions drm_edid_read(), drm_edid_read_ddc(), and drm_edid_read_custom() to replace drm_get_edid() and drm_do_get_edid() for reading the EDID. The transition is expected to happen over a fairly long time. Note that the new drm_edid_read*() functions do not do any of the connector updates anymore. The reading and parsing will be completely separated from each other. Add new functions drm_edid_alloc(), drm_edid_dup(), and drm_edid_free() for allocating and freeing drm_edid containers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
