What is detect() supposed to return in the event that we have external
HPD handler? The link state? While the external HPD bridge would return
the HPD state?

If a driver only drives the link inbetween atomic_enable() and
atomic_disable() will the "connected state" then ever be reported as
"connected"? (I'm sure I'm still missing pieces of this puzzle).
