I've reviewed the patch; here's the changes it implements:
* Version from 2.8.0 to 2.9.0
* Adds file geode_ddc.c to implement routines for querying monitor capabilities via DDC
* Switches code to use DDC querying routines
* Drops old code that used VBE's EDID querying for monitor capabilities
All in all, the patch looks sane to me, and although I've not tested it myself, it looks acceptable to me.
