Blank LVDS panel on Intel IronLake laptop

Description

Haiku R1/beta2 and nightly (playing with hrev54352) boot to a blank screen in my laptop with IronLake graphics. Not a hang, as it responds to long Ctrl-Alt-Supr, and the panel is on with backlight. It just doesn't display anything. Connecting a monitor to the VGA port doesn't change results.

What has worked for me is changing refclk_activate_ilk. There are three path selections there: Ibexpeak PCH, hasPanel and hasEDP. In my case, I have IBX and panel, and EDP is hardcoded as true for whatever reason. My results playing with that function are:

IBXpanelEDP
YYYblank screen
YYNblank screen
YN blank screen
NYYworks
NYNworks
NN works
return before changing anythingworks

Where "works" means I get the desktop in the panel. The external VGA monitor doesn't get signal anyway, but there seems to be tickets for that already.

Syslogs attached, though the only relevant difference I see is "No changes to reference clock" in refclk_activate_ilk in the correct boot.
