The DDC/CI protocol involves sending a multi-byte request to the
display via I2C, which is typically followed by a multi-byte
response. The internal I2C controller only allows single byte
reads/writes or reads of 8 sequential bytes, hence DDC/CI is not
supported when the internal I2C controller is used. The I2C
transfers complete without errors, however the data in the response
is garbage. Abort transfers to/from slave address 0x37 (DDC) with
-EOPNOTSUPP, to make it evident that the communication is failing.

This confused the heck out of me to read, DDC by definition happens
over I2C and this one address is just for a specific subset of DDC.
Perhaps this would be clearer if it was named DDC_CI_ADDR.

I was also a bit confused about the terminology, some places call 0x37
the DDC address and 0x50 the EDID address.

DDC_CI_ADDR sounds good to me, thanks for the suggestion!

I'll wait a day or two before respinning, for if there are more comments.
