drm/i915: Favor last VBT child device with conflicting AUX ch/DDC pin
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The first come first served apporoach to handling the VBT
child device AUX ch conflicts has backfired. We have machines
in the wild where the VBT specifies both port A eDP and
port E DP (in that order) with port E being the real one.

So let's try to flip the preference around and let the last
child device win once again.
