Subject: drm/kms: remove spaces from connector names (v2)

From: Alex Deucher <[email protected]>

commit e76116ca9671e2e5239054a40303b94feab585ad upstream.

Grub doesn't parse spaces in parameters correctly, so
this makes it impossible to force video= parameters
for kms on the grub kernel command line.

v2: shorten the names to make them easier to type.
