It works for the vast majority of users and removing it would break unplug and
replug of DP displays.  Without that code you would have to manually disable
and re-enable the display using xrandr every time you connect or disconnect a
DP display.  It would also break disconnect and reconnect of dp displays for
the console.

In your case we need to find out why it's not working properly for you.  You
mentioned that it works properly in the console but not in X.  That sounds like
maybe your desktop environment is trying to do something special which causes
the problem.  Does it work properly with a bare X server?  E.g., just run Xorg
without a desktop environment.
