Your bug doesn't just exist over s/r, it's just much easier to observe
in s/r since users can take however long they want to with plugging in
a different monitor. But the same issue exists e.g. when we go from
hpd to polling because too much noise on the line.
Wrt the suspend/resume issue: What we need to do on resume is do a
full reprobe of all outputs, in an async worker. Telling userspace to
do this by sending an uevent was the cheapest way, but it'd be better
if the kernel could do that asynchronously and inform userspace about
the exact changes. And there's more to reprobe than just the edid, and
we don't want to re-invent a separate reprobe path just for resume
like you start in your patch series. So yeah my plan was missing:
- force a full async reprobe after resume (maybe we could reuse the
poll worker for that as a one-shot).
