Why was this bugfix not part of the original series? Now I have to retest
on my ivb to figure out whether maybe this one here is the issue ...

Also how exactly does this work? I thought the hpd bits control whether we
get an interrupt, not the other way round? Why exactly does this help?
Definitely needs a lot more explanation.

Also this seems to break bisect, since before the preceeding patch to
check hpd status we just retried edid reading for a while.

This kind of hacking doesn't really convince me that hpd status is
working, just that our own testing isn't good enough to catch all
real-world issues.
