yes, probably it is because they shut down the CRTC on the disconnect,
but userspace using ATOMIC ioctl has to do that explicitly (and weston
does not). So the only connection to ATOMIC vs legacy ioctl paths is
that atomic lets userspace not shut down the CRTC.
Fwiw, I did have a patch to make adv75xx use the link_status (it is
really the bridge, not msm, which should be doing this, since it is
100% about the bridge). But since that relies on userspace support
(which weston does not have yet), and Sean's approach actually seems
to work out ok, I kinda like his approach better.
