Which devices?

Again, which devices?

You only need one :)

You're doing basically two things in that patch, first adding the
fallback to the DDC probe if the hotplug mechanism couldn't detect the
display, and then returning a status unknown if both fail.

While I don't really have an opinion on the first one, it's mandatory
for every HDMI device to be able to retrieve the EDID through the
DDC. If a device was to disallow that, it would violate the HDMI, and
I'm not sure we want to start supporting those devices.
