Even though HDMI connector features hotplug detect pin (HPD), there
are older devices which do not support it. For these devices fall
back to additional check on I2C bus to probe for EDID data.

One known example is HDMI/DVI display with following edid:

$ xxd -p display.edid
00ffffffffffff0005a1e00301000000150f0103800f05780a0f6ea05748
9a2610474f200000010101010101010101010101010101012a08804520e0
0b1020004000953600000018000000fd0034441a2403000a202020202020
0000001000310a20202020202020202020200000001000002a4030701300

$ edid-decode display.edid

Checksum: 0x6b (valid)

Now, current implementation is still flawed, as HDMI uses the
HPD signal to indicate that the source should re-read the EDID
due to change in device capabilities. With current HPD polling
implementation we would most certainly miss those notifications
as one can try just swapping two HDMI monitors really fast.

Proper fix would be skipping the HPD pin detection and relying
on just EDID fetching and acting on its changes.
