You're not proving the driver proper can transmit the requested stuff,
you're only proving the special compliance code can do that. I could
easily break the normal codepaths and yet this magic compliance thing
could still indicate that everything is hunky dory.

You don't really need any uevent. We coukd do the stuff directly from 
the hotplug work.

We should just do a full modeset if possible. Randomly turning the
pipe/etc. on/off without following the proper modeset sequence is
dubious at best.
