SRU Justification:

Impact: This patch is part of a series of fix for the IGEPv2 board. The monitor's EDID information needs to be exported to userspace for application such as 'decode-edid' and 'parse-edid' to decode.

Fix: To do this a 3rd "i2c_board_info" instance is declared and initialized in "igep2_i2c_init", part of the board initialization sequence. This patch depends on [PATCH 4/6], applied to BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/654590.

Testcase: Without this patch, 'decode-edid' and 'parse-edid' will return error messages. Otherwise the monitor' specific EDID information is displayed.
