Maybe it's a problem with my setup, as I don't think I have any randr client
running: I just run xrandr via my xinitrc and via some scripts linked from udev
for DRM hotplug events for when I move the laptop around.  Is it required that
I have more stuff running in order to make DPMS events work?  IIRC my setup has
looked like this for years now, but if it's broken because it's wacky then I
can change it.

Regardless, I think something is still broken here.  I don't need to actaully
unplug anything for this to break, if I just run "xset dpms force off" to turn
the screen off and then wake it back up my eDP laptop display comes back fine
but my DP monitor doesn't.  I'd expect eDP and DP to behave the same here.
IIRC the link doesn't come back up even if I twiddle some xrandr stuff, but I
might getting this confused with the previous similar bug.  If you want I can
boot back into the broken kernel and run some experiments, but it'd be great if
you could suggest some for me.

Sorry, I don't actually know anything about DRM so I'm not sure what's going
on.  I just generated this patch by looking at the bug from last time my DP
monitor stopped working, looking at the last few things that touched that
function, and then adding back in the thing that looks like it would make link
detection work again :).

The last time I did this I got it wrong as well -- looking at
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89453> I see that I suggested

but the correct solution (d14e7b6d1 "drm/i915: Check DP link status on long hpd

my fix for this new bug (which might just be another workaround) was copied
from the correct fix from last time.
