I'd certainly like to know, since we have lots of other customers with
TO.1.0 silicon.
With this information and your EDID blob, I should be able to reproduce
things, and I'm sure I have an older board around somewhere.

Okay. I'm still confused about why the kernel decided to use
"DVI" mode.
Because of this, the kernel didn't configure an audio channel
as shown in my equivalent output:
nitrogen6x user.debug kernel: mxc_hdmi_setup: mxc_hdmi
20e0000.hdmi_video: mxc_hdmi_setup CEA mode
nitrogen6x user.debug kernel: hdmi_set_clk_regenerator:
hdmi_set_clk_regenerator: samplerate=48000 ratio=100
pixelclk=148500000 N=6144 cts=148500
nitrogen6x user.debug kernel: hdmi_enable_audio_clk: mxc_hdmi
20e0000.hdmi_video: hdmi_enable_audio_clk
nitrogen6x user.debug kernel: hdmi_config_AVI: mxc_hdmi
20e0000.hdmi_video: set up AVI frame
nitrogen6x user.debug kernel: mxc_hdmi_setup: mxc_hdmi
20e0000.hdmi_video: mxc_hdmi_setup exit

Perhaps, but the clock divisors appeared to be the same as what
I saw in a working unit.
