In the patch ("drm/edid: Allow the querying/working with the panel ID
from the EDID") we introduced a different way of working with the
panel ID stored in the EDID. Let's use this new way for the quirks
code.
Advantages of the new style:
* Smaller data structure size. Saves 4 bytes per panel.
* Iterate through quirks structure with just "==" instead of strncmp()
* In-kernel storage is more similar to what's stored in the EDID
itself making it easier to grok that they are referring to the same
value.

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.
