I think I may have misspoke on what the issue was here since I was about to
leave work. The MST bit might not actually be an issue, however I think
nouveau_fbcon_init() being called before nouveau_display_init() would be an
issue since nouveau_fbcon_init() can trigger a modeset - and we can't perform
modesets before nouveau_display_init() has set things up.

Looking at the docs for drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() - I think the actual fix
here (to ensure that we still call drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() at the right
time during suspend) would be to actually add another call to
drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() into nouveau_fbcon_fini() before we call
nouveau_fbcon_accel_fini() and everything after. This should make sure that we
stop the output polling work early on driver unload, and since the docs
mention that it's OK to disable polling more then once with
drm_kms_helper_poll_disable() I don't see any issues with that.
