I have an old monitor that reports a zero EDID block, which results in a
warning message. This happens on every screen save cycle, and maybe in
some other situations, and over time the whole kernel log gets filled
with these redundant messages.

Make most of these prints conditional on bad_edid_count like other verbose EDID
messages.

v2: Use bad_edid_count instead of _once.
v3: Move rate limit logic into dedicated wrapper.

Honestly I think merging this would be counter-productive to addressing
the issue properly.

Please just give me the chance to look into it.

Is your zero EDID block the base block or an extension block?

BR,
Jani.

You think it's a problem on the host side, not the monitor side?

It's an extension block I believe.

Both. :)

Having zero EDID block is an issue with the display, logging excessively
about it is an issue on the host side.

Now that should be helpful in detecting display changes, and only
logging once per display. Unless you unplug and plug, but that's not so
common.
