Ddcutil 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 include workarounds for this kernel. On my system 
bringing back the same capabilities I had under kernel 5.8, whereas with 
ddcutil 0.9.9 on kernel 5.10 there was simply no device detected.

As 5.10 seems to be the default in the upcoming Debian release, it would be 
very nice to get ddcutil updated as well.
I had no issue building ddcutil from source.
