Just decided to "ping" this discussion again. The issue is already some
years old and still nothing is fixed. I do agree that may be something
needs to be fixed/changed here in those patches, but something must be
agreed at least I guess, as discussions themself do not fix bugs.
Currently those patches address a particular issue which occurs, if
display is changed during suspend. 
On ocassional basis, userspace might not get a hotplug event at all,
causing different kind of problems(like wrong mode set on display or
diaply not working at all). Also some kms_chamelium hotplug tests fail
because of that.
