    drm/connector: Add support for out-of-band hotplug notification (v3) · 72ad4968
    Hans de Goede authored
    Add a new drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() function and
    oob_hotplug_event drm_connector_funcs member.
    
    On some hardware a hotplug event notification may come from outside the
    display driver / device. An example of this is some USB Type-C setups
    where the hardware muxes the DisplayPort data and aux-lines but does
    not pass the altmode HPD status bit to the GPU's DP HPD pin.
    
    In cases like this the new drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() function can
    be used to report these out-of-band events.
    
    Changes in v2:
    - Make drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() take a fwnode as argument and
      have it call drm_connector_find_by_fwnode() internally. This allows
      making drm_connector_find_by_fwnode() a drm-internal function and
      avoids code outside the drm subsystem potentially holding on the
      a drm_connector reference for a longer period.
    
    Changes in v3:
    - Drop the data argument to the drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event
      function since it is not used atm. This can be re-added later when
      a use for it actually arises.
