*not* doing modeset for LVDS/eDP is the key here -- the panel is
probably already running, and all we need to do is change the scaling
parameters, which (on new hardware) doesn't require a full mode set.

I worked with vorlon to investigate what this would take and got pretty
far down the path; the big missing piece is that we have to have
a valid scanout buffer for the whole setup sequence.
