In the patch ("drm/panel-simple-edp: Split eDP panels out of
panel-simple") we split the PANEL_SIMPLE driver in 2. By default let's
give everyone who had the old driver enabled the new driver too. If
folks want to opt-out of one or the other they always can later.

Isn't this a case where the new option should just have had the old
option as the default value to avoid this kind of churn and possibly
broken platforms?
