    drm/i915: Drop PIPE-A quirk for 945GSE HP Mini · 736a69ca

    Since the introduction of BIOS fb preservation, circa 3.17, we began
    encountering a failure during boot when trying to use force-detect
    before GEM was initialised. That bug is from

        drm/i915: ensure the force pipe A quirk is actually followed
    
    but investigation of the affected machine revealed that it was using a
    PIPE-A quirk even though it was a 945GSE and the quirk is only supposed
    to be used to workaround a hardware issue on 830/845. That quirk was
    added for this HP Mini in

        add pipe a force quirk for Dell mini
    
    in order to workaround an issue with the BIOS behaving strangely during
    lid-close. Since then we have a much larger hammer to thwart the BIOS
    after opening the lid and the PIPE-A quirk is no longer required.
