I think it's pretty much a hard requirement we respect the panel delays
at i915 probe. If we don't know, we don't know, and we can't make
assumptions.

If the goal is to speed up boot, you should ensure 1) the pre-os enables
the display, and 2) i915 can take over the display without a modeset and
a panel power cycle.
