The ACPI OpRegion Mailbox #5 ASLE extension may contain an EDID to be used for the embedded display. Add support for using it via by adding the EDID to the list of available modes on the connector, and use it for eDP when available. If a panel's EDID is broken, there may be an override EDID set in the ACPI OpRegion mailbox #5. Use it if available. Fixes the GPD Win Max display.

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.
