The Vdd regulator used to be enabled only at tegra_output_hdmi_enable,
which is called after a sink is detected. However, the HDMI hotplug pin
works by returning the voltage supplied by the Vdd pin, so this meant
that the hotplug pin was never asserted and the sink was not detected
unless the Vdd regulator was set to be always on.

This patch moves the enable to the tegra_hdmi_drm_init function to make
sure the regulator will get enabled.

The DT binding document isn't very clear on this topic (and should be
fixed): What is this regulator intended to control? If this regulator
solely controls the supply to the hotplug detection circuit, this change
makes sense. If the regulator mainly supplies something else (e.g. part
of the HDMI core on the Tegra chip), then perhaps this change isn't
correct. The correct approach might be to introduce another (optional)
regulator specifically for the hotplug circuit. Presumably both DT
properties vdd-supply and hotplug-supply could point at the same
regulator if that's the way the HW was wired up.

AFAICT, it controls the Vdd pin on the HDMI port, so it just affects the hotplug pin and the DDC I2C bus power.
