When DP MST hubs get confused, they can occasionally stop responding for a good bit of time up until the point where the DRM driver manages to do the right DPCD accesses to get it to start responding again. In a worst case scenario however, this process can take upwards of 10+ seconds. Currently we use the default output_poll_changed handler drm_fb_helper_output_poll_changed() to handle output polling, which doesn't happen to grab any power references on the device when polling. If we're unlucky enough to have a hub (such as Lenovo's infamous laptop docks for the P5x/P7x series) that's easily startled and confused, this can lead to a pretty nasty deadlock situation that looks like this: - Hotplug event from hub happens, we enter drm_fb_helper_output_poll_changed() and start communicating with the hub - While we're in drm_fb_helper_output_poll_changed() and attempting to communicate with the hub, we end up confusing it and cause it to stop responding for at least 10 seconds - After 5 seconds of being in drm_fb_helper_output_poll_changed(), the pm core attempts to put the GPU into autosuspend, which ends up calling drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() - While the runtime PM core is waiting in drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() for the output poll to finish, we end up finally detecting an MST display - We notice the new display and tries to enable it, which triggers an atomic commit which triggers a call to pm_runtime_get_sync() - the output poll thread deadlocks the pm core waiting for the pm core to finish the autosuspend request while the pm core waits for the output poll thread to finish Sample: [ 246.669625] INFO: task kworker/4:0:37 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

This fixes deadlock issues when in fbcon with nouveau on my P50, and should fix it for everyone else's as well!
