I retested with both 4.8.4, Ben’s linux-4.9 and linux-4.10 branches (so only the linux-4.10 branch had the atomic+MST patches). For all branches, if I bootplug the external screen, I get nothing on the external screen, and the laptop screen is frozen with some mix of images (but the laptop itself is not locked up), nothing in dmesg. If I hotplug the screen, the laptop screen is not frozen, but starting with linux-4.10, I get an EVO timeout when turning off the external monitor. Adding your patch did not change anything for me. Looks like I’ll need to spend some more time testing and bisecting those issues…
