This patch restricts usage of live status check for HDMI detection.
While testing certain (monitor + cable) combinations with various
intel  platforms, it seems that live status register is not reliable
on some older devices. So limit the live_status check from VLV onwards.

This fixes a regression introduced in:
        commit: 237ed86 "drm/i915: Check live status"
        Author: Sonika Jindal <sonika.jin...@intel.com>

Fixes: 237ed86c693d ("drm/i915: Check live status before reading edid")
Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org # v4.4
Bugzilla: ?

Let me dig for it ... Do you have a link ? If yes, please share.

Replace dev with dev_priv. Both work, it's magic, but we prefer using
dev_priv where possible.

Interesting, will try that out.
Move try variable declaration here.

Got it.

You'll now ignore live_status on all platforms. (But please do not turn
this into a do-while, keep it as a for loop.)

Consider using onoff(live_status) instead of live_status ? "up" :
"down".

Sounds cool, I dint know about onoff yet, will check.
