Subject: Re: [PATCH] drm/mst: Fix NULL pointer dereference in drm_dp_add_payload_part2 (again)

As a follow up, I read through the original thread before sending this
and my understanding is that this message probably shouldn't be getting
printed in the first place.  I've turned on KMS, ATOMIC, STATE, and DP
debugging to see what shakes out.  I have a KVM on my desk that I use to
switch between systems fairly frequently.  I'm speculating that the
connecting and disconnecting is related, so I'm hopeful I can trigger it
quickly.
