This is my first patch which I tested to work on OpenBSD and then
confirmed compiling in Linux.

Subject: [PATCH] drm/drm_edid: Read within initialized memory bounds (fix off
 by one)

The problem manifests as a memory out of bounds kernel panic in
OpenBSD which uses this code. The buggy error reporting code path
likely never runs with nominal hardware.

drm_do_get_edid at carp used to invoke connector_bad_edid was num_exts
of 1 even though edid at that point is only allocated a memory block
of size EDID_LENGTH. This in turn led to drm_edid_block_checksum
trying to read memory in the range [edid + EDID_LENGTH, edid +
2*EDID_LENGTH) i.e. outside the allocated boundaries. A similar if a
bit more complicated analysis applies to the other call to
connector_bad_edid. Switching to using valid_extensions limits
connector_bad_edid memory reading to the memory previously written by
drm_do_get_edid.
