Ignore DEVICE_TYPE_NOT_HDMI_OUTPUT and DEVICE_TYPE_DIGITAL_OUTPUT when
trying to determine the presence of eDP based on the VBT child device
type. Apparently a significant portion of VLV systems have these bits
set incorrectly, and so we currently fail to detect eDP on said systems.

This is based on an earlier patch [1] from Andreas Lampersperger.
Instead of ignoring the bits just on VLV as was done in the orignal
patch, we now ignore them for all platforms. We should still have
enough bits in there to avoid false positives (unless the VBT is totally
bonkers).

Quoting the orignal patch:

Only testing will tell for sure.
