I added a WARN_ON(1) in drm_bridge_hpd_enable() to get a sense of when
this window of "opportunity" opens up, and here's the callstack:

As drm_kms_helper_poll_init() is the last thing being called in
msm_drm_init() shifting around the mode_config.func assignment would not
have any impact.

Perhaps we have shuffled other things around to avoid this bug?  Either
way, let's this on hold  until further proof that it's still
reproducible.

Sorry for the noise,
Bjorn
