As far as I tested these, they are NULL in both Hotplug and connected boot
Cases. There was one issue during suspend/resume where it was not NULL.
But later we figured out, we always have a valid crtc during resume and hence
Should not take this path. So, yes, with all our testing so far, NULL works fine here.

Agreed, this need to be rebased on atomic. Will do this in next version.

Yes, I also had a similar thought, but did not get to _load_detect_pipe()
Function. Will look at it and try to use it..

I am not sure either. When we tested on BXT, these were always
used by one crtc only. So, is this a valid case in BXT or in some other DDI
based platforms ?

I believe you are talking about DPCD 202h and 203h i.e which one of them is
actually being used/reported correctly. I will check on this with few different
cables during my next round of testing.

Ok, will try this implementation..

Thank you for having a look at this patch Ander..
