I didn't realize that you could have a dp-connector device without
defining the hpd-gpios, but it looks like you're right.
Do we have any reason for using the internal HPD, when we're already
spending the memory to allocate the dp-connector device?
PS. It's recommended that you dynamically switch to GPIO-based HPD in
lower-power scenarios, as this allow you to turn off the DP controller
and still detect plug events...
