I did not know that, just scanned the entire thread. Try this patch, it
makes use of fb_ddc_read*() which I believe has extra steps to prevent
display corruption. It also incorporates Luca's i2c fix.

Applied. No noticeable difference, in the sense that the EDID debug
output is still the same and so is the snow effect.
