I checked again some machines, and they all seem working.

Actually the encoder type is set again in each detection function
(intel_hdmi_detect(), intel_dp_detect()) no matter with or without my
workaround.  The problem happens when a HPD is triggered only to DP
while the HDMI is kept on.  Then intel_hdmi_detect() won't be called
so the wrongly overridden encoder type remains.

Why the override is still needed in intel_dp_hpd_pulse() isn't clear
to me, but at least it influences on the port power domain handling.
And my change won't affect in this regard.
