Hi Dave,
Will hunting down a patch in my machine farm I've stumbled over this
one here. It fixes a detection race I've noticed while testing the new
hpd stuff a while back. Chris already smashed his r-b onto it.
Can you please include this in drm-next for 3.8?
Thanks, Daniel

There's a race window (small for hpd, 10s large for polled outputs)
where userspace could sneak in with an unrelated connnector probe
ioctl call and eat the hotplug event (since neither the hpd nor the
poll code see a state change).
To avoid this, check whether the connector state changes in all
