I'm happy that intel_get_load_detect_pipe() does the right thing if the
connector is already active (so that we don't blank an active display
when checking for disconnections). I was worried that this meant we had
a deeper bug with our connection state, but as Daniel made me realise it
is that the "fast path" is lacking the enable.
