This solution is at odds with

    drm/probe-helper: clamp unknown connector status in the poll work

We're missing this bit of logic from the hotplug handlers, but that was
somewhat intentional since a hotplug should indicate that something has
changed. And in the i915 hpd handler we filter by source.

Given that the report is older than me having resurrect that patch can we
close it as fixed or do I miss something?

Thanks, Daniel
