I refreshed that dialog. I must admit, I have missed the fact that the
HPD pin might not be visible as the GPIO pin.

Yes, I was thinking about (mis)using the
drm_bridge_connector_hpd_notify() for generic HPD-related
notifications (to tell eDP that it should check the current state). I
have abandoned that idea.

The is_hpd_asserted() looks like a good callback for the aux bus.
It will allow the panel driver to check if the panel is powered up (in
the absence of the GPIO pin).

This looks good. I'd be more than welcome to review such series.

Note: I think this would require using
drm_bridge_connector_enable_hpd() in the DP code.
Hopefully at some point we would be able to move all
drm_bridge_connector calls to the core msm layer.
