A quick reaction of my guts say, we simply enable 5V/HPD_IRQ during
probe and disable during remove.
HDMI enable/disable via /sysfs/ and HPD (de)assertion, switch only
HDMI_PHY on/off.
The user selecting "Autodetect and Configure" option would then equate
to "(un)loading" of the HDMI driver.
Not to mean a trivial job.
