Right, i915 creates 2 connectors, while nouveau, radeon, and amdgpu
create 1 connector (not sure about other drivers) for a single
physical DP++ socket. Since we supply the list of valid values at the
time of creating the connector, we can't know at that point whether in
the future a HDMI or DP will be plugged into it.
