How do I disable edid check on kernel command line?

Not Deja vu, per se. Found solution by adjusting bios parameters. IIRC, 
today's behaviors appeared after changes to systemd-udev. If I could 
backtrack to the point when oddities first started, I would downgrade 
system. I'll burn rawhide DVD and give it a try.

Thanks
