I might not have explained myself very well. The way things should look with
this patch is like this:

i915_drm_resume()
 -> intel_hpd_init()
   -> sets dev_priv->hotplug.poll_enabled to true
   -> schedules dev_priv->hotplug.poll_init_work
 -> continue resume…

at the same time:

i915_hpd_poll_init_work() gets scheduled and starts
 -> since dev_priv->hotplug.poll_enabled == false, drm_helper_hpd_irq_event() is called
  -> drm_helper_hpd_irq_event() reprobes connectors
   -> if anything changed, drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event() gets called.

So we're still polling the connectors when coming out of resume just like
before, except now we're doing it without needlessly making the whole resume
process stall until we're done. We're also no longer reprobing display
connectors twice…
