Takashi Iwai 7b668ebe2f drm: edid: Don't add inferred modes with higher resolution
When a monitor EDID doesn't give the preferred bit, driver assumes
that the mode with the higest resolution and rate is the preferred
mode.  Meanwhile the recent changes for allowing more modes in the
GFT/CVT ranges give actually more modes, and some modes may be over
the native size.  Thus such a mode would be picked up as the preferred
mode although it's no native resolution.

For avoiding such a problem, this patch limits the addition of
inferred modes by checking not to be greater than other modes.
Also, it checks the duplicated mode entry at the same time.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
