Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: blacklist lid status: Sony VGN-BX196VP, Dell Inspiron 700m

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/515246

Sony VGN-BX196VP and Dell Inspiron 700m report lid status as closed
when it is open. This leads to a "no connectors reported" error at startup.
Blacklisting them to always return a connected status for the default
lvds connector.

Its worth noting that this will likely be a stable update (eventually).

Minor collission with something from stable by the looks of it, I've
fixed it up and applied it.

Applied to Lucid.
