[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Add hot_plug hook for hdmi encoder

Sure, I will start a new thread for this.

Regarding the regression, since it is a sandybridge system, I am not sure if I can debug it anyhow because of the unavailability of the system.
For the live status check, we earlier suggested to use platforms gen8 and above.
But for wider testing, we removed the check.
If required we can add a check there.

Regards,
Sonika

Iirc we had to revert an earlier version of this. Commit message should cite that revert and explain why this version is better.

Also after a few days please start a new thread when resubmitting a patch series. The idea behind in-reply-to is to keep the discussion together while it's still ongoing. That's not the case when the discussion has died down since weeks.

Also, your patch to take hpd sense into account for hdmi detection has causes a regression. Your on the cc. Handling that regression needs to be absolute top priority (otherwise I need to revert that patch too).

Thanks, Daniel
