[Wang, Quanxian] No, I don't disconnect the sink device physically. Kernel will receive the dpms signal when branch device think monitor is in sleep status(The screen turns to black after a while). But it is still connected. Kernel still could get the DDC data by calling drm_probe_ddc and also kernel still could get EDID data. From DP protocol, SINK_COUNT is 0 and it doesn't show the real status of branch device at that time.
That is why I think SINK_COUNT isn't reliable. With this patch, when I press any key, monitor will turn to be active from sleep status. Without it, any action on key or mouse could not active monitor after its sleep.
