Revert "drm/i915: set TRANSCODER_EDP even earlier"

This reverts commit cc464b2a.

The reason is that Takashi Iwai reported a regression bisected to this
commit:

http://www.mail-archive.com/intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg18788.html



His machine has eDP on port D (usual desktop all-in-on setup), which
intel_dp.c identifies as an eDP panel, but the hsw ddi code
mishandles.

Closer inspection of the code reveals that haswell_crtc_mode_set also
checks intel_encoder_is_pch_edp when setting is_cpu_edp. On haswell
that doesn't make much sense (since there's no edp on the pch), but
what this function _really_ checks is whether that edp connector is on
port A or port D. It's just that on ilk-ivb port D was on the pch ...

So that explains why this seemingly innocent change killed eDP on port
D. Furthermore it looks like everything else accidentally works, since
we've never enabled eDP on port D support for hsw intentionally (e.g.
we still register the HDMI output for port D in that case).

But in retrospective I also don't like that this leaks highly platform
specific details into common code, and the reason is that the drm
vblank layer sucks. So instead I think we should:
- move the cpu_transcoder into the dynamic pipe_config tracking (once
  that's merged).
- fix up the drm vblank layer to finally deal with kms crtc objects
  instead of int pipes.

v2: Pimp commit message with the better diagnosis as discussed with
Paulo on irc.
