[Intel-gfx] i915: regression: after DP connected monitor is turned off, when turned on, it does not work anymore

[Jiri Pirko]

Hi.

I'm experiencing this issue on Fedora kernel, but I tested that upstream
kernel behaves the same.

Description of problem:

On my T440s machine I'm experiencing this regression when if I turn off
DP connected display, I can never make graphics work again.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.17.6-200.fc20.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have DP connected display
2. turn it off
3. turn it on

Actual results:
No signal in display.

Expected results:
There's signal going into display, everything is flooded in colours.

Additional info:
With 3.16.4-200.fc20.x86_64 this is working without any issues.
I tested with current Linus's git (58628a7831edac5f7a13) and the issue is
still there.
