Hmm, initial plan was to call it from other places if any..
But now it seems more logical to name it _hot_plug.
I will do that.

Where else do you suggest to do this? detect call is one place which 
does this for DP and used to do for HDMI also.
But since we need to take the edid reading part out of edid, I dont see 
any other place.
Please suggest.
