Do not give a warning for the eDP panels if the "bus_format" is
not specified, since most eDP panels can support more than one
bus formats and this can be auto-detected.
Also, update the check to include bpc=10 for the eDP panel.

You'll still get a warning is bpc == 0, is that intentional ?
This was not intentional, I missed considering bpc=0 case. As we are 
removing the warning for bus_format=0 then a similar thing can be done 
for the bpc=0 also. The bpc value should be a valid one if it is 
specified. Unlike the bus_format, bpc has few possible values that can 
be checked here along with 0. Please correct me if I misunderstood the 
concept.
I will fix this.
What's the point of specifying bpc if it's optional though ? Users of
the panel will need to support the case where bpc is set to 0. Have you
ensured that they all do ? Can they meaningfully use the bpc value if
they need to be ready to support bpc == 0 ?
