Has there been any discussion as to how EDID data would best be represented
in DT? Should it just be a binary blob or rather some textual representation?

I think a binary blob makes sense - that's the exact same format it'd
have if read over the DDC I2C bus.

DTC has /incbin/ for that. Is arch/arm/boot/dts still the correct place for
EDID blobs? I could add tegra-medcom.edid if that's okay.

As far as I know, yes.

Perhaps we'll want to start putting stuff in SoC-specific
sub-directories given the number of files we'll end up with here
(irrespective of EDID etc.), but I haven't seen any move towards that yet.

Yes, especially as more machines are moving to DT that directory will soon
become quite cluttered. I suppose a tegra subdirectory wouldn't hurt.

I've been looking about for tools to generate EDID data but didn't find
anything useful. Does anyone know of any tool that's more convenient than
manually filling a struct edid and writing that to a file?
