This isn't really a hotplug bug per se. That patch enabled runtime
power management which powered down the GPU completely to save power.
Unfortunately when it's powered down, hotplug interrupts won't work
because the entire GPU is powered off. Disabling runtime pm will
allow hotplug interrupts to work, but will cause the GPU to burn a lot
more power. I'm not sure what the best solution is. You can manually
wake the card via sysfs (either via the runtime pm controls in
/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power or by reading a sensor on the board
like temperature) then hotplut the monitor or via a direct request to
probe the displays via the display server.
