patch to fix

edid-decode does not allow spaces, it is incorrectly reporting the name and throwing an error.

edid-decode:
--
descriptor 4:    00 00 00 fc 00 53 4d 41 52 54 20 49 46 50 0a 20 20 20
...
Monitor name: SMART
...
Detailed block string not properly terminated
--

parse-edid:
--
Section "Monitor"
	Identifier "SMART IFP"
	ModelName "SMART IFP"
--

After attached patch edid-decode behaves correctly.
Simon.
