Looks like we won't actually disable the hpd irq anywhere. Even the
current long hpd storm handling seems a bit confused as it will
call .hpd_irq_setup() from intel_hpd_irq_handler() but actually
marking the pins as disabled won't happen until
i915_hotplug_work_func(). So the interrupt won't actually get disabled
until the second time through intel_hpd_irq_handler() after we detected
a storm.
