Some information from me, using 4.16.8 kernel
System is Lenovo Z50-75 laptop with AMD-A10 cpu (Kaveri) and both HDMI and VGA 
ports. I use the VGA port to which is connected an Acer X223HQ display, capable 
of displaying up to 1920x1080. The laptop screen is also 1920x1080

If system is booted with the following kernel options

amdgpu.cik_support=1 radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.dc=1

I get a black/blank VGA screen.

If system is booted with

amdgpu.cik_support=1 radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.dc=0

I get a working VGA display in addition to the laptop screen.

With amdgpu.dc=1 the contents of /sys/class/drm are:
card0
card0-eDP-1
card0-HDMI-A-1
renderD128
ttm
version

With amdgpu.dc=0 the contents of /sys/class/drm are:
card0
card0-eDP-1
card0-HDMI-A-1
card0-VGA-1
renderD128
ttm
version

With amdgpu.dc=0, dmesg lines containing 'drm' are
