Yes this is correct, I just checked on sc7180.

It stays at unknown till we run IGT. This matches your explanation 
perfectly.

What we found is that drm_atomic_helper_suspend() which calls 
drm_atomic_helper_duplicate_state(), uses drm_for_each_connector_iter() 
which does not rely on the last atomic state but actually uses the 
config->connector_list which in-turn disables all connectors including WB.

Is this expected that even though WB was not really there in the last 
atomic_state before the suspend, still ended up suspending / resuming 
and thus exposing this bug?

I am  now more convinced of this change as I understand the flow better. 
But wanted to highlight above observation.
