[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Stop calling intel_prepare_ddi during power well initialization.

[Rodrigo Vivi]

The comment removed along with the calls explains why they shouldn't be here:

/* DDI buffer programming unnecessary during driver-load/resume
 * as it's already done during modeset initialization then.
 * It's also invalid here as encoder list is still uninitialized.
 */

And the protection is not working well causing issues during the boot where
power well initialization doesn't go as expected.

So this call during modeset initialization where the encoder list is yet
unitilized causes a NULL dereference breaking i915.

While we don't find the right protection and we don't understand why this is
actually needed I believe it is safe to just remove these calls.
