Ok, the device is configured differently to how I was expecting. It uses
SDVO to drive both LVDS (which I should have guessed given the drivers
report of 2 LVDS). At first glance, we think we are driving both panels,
i.e. we've attached a crtc to each and a bound the fbcon framebuffer to
both crtcs, yet only one panel is active. The likely suspect is inside
intel_sdvo.c.

A different adventure than the one I was anticipating. Perhaps this will
be my wayland test bed...
