[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] Revert "drm/i915: Force state->modeset=true when distrust_bios_wm==true"

[Stefan Joosten]

The fix of flagging state->modeset whenever distrust_bios_wm is set
causes a regression when initializing display(s) attached to a Lenovo
USB-C docking station. The display remains blank until the dock is
reattached. Revert to bring the behavior of the functional v5.6 stable.

This reverts commit 0f8839f5f323da04a800e6ced1136e4b1e1689a9.
