The following two patches try to prevent a system hang when a modeset
is forced by userspace (Weston) on legacy Type-C ports that are
disconnected. This issue was accidentally discovered while trying
to modeset one of the HDMI ports on the TGL based Gigabyte system
(https://www.gigabyte.com/Mini-PcBarebone/GB-BSi3-1115G4-rev-10#ov)
using the following Weston settings (configured via weston.ini):

[output]
name=HDMI-A-3
mode=173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576  1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
force-on=true

Entering the name of the HDMI connector incorrectly above (for example
HDMI-A-3 (disconnected) instead of HDMI-A-2 (connected)) lead to 
warnings in the log followed by a system hang. To fix this issue,
the first patch prevents the selection of TBT PLL for legacy Type-C
ports and the second one rejects any attempts to modeset disconnected
Type-C ports.
