I'm fine with adding another patch to clarify that comment as well

I think having that at the end of a modeset in addition to this would be a
good idea as well, I don't see any harm in having an additional check in the
long pulse handler in case something causes the link to become unstable at
some point in the future after the initial modeset

Jan, do you think you could provide some dmesg logs for this issue?
