drm_select_eld() would seem pointless to me if we cached the
required information somewhere. But we'd still need to actually
get the eld, and that means either caching it again somewhere,
or perhaps it would be better to move the drm_edid_to_eld() call to
happen at modeset audio enable time protected by the av_mutex?
That way connector->eld contents would remain constant as long
as we have a mode set.
