Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Update the hotplug documentation to explain that hotplug storm
is not expected for Display port panels and hence is not handled
in current code.

* while before being re-enabled. The intention is to mitigate issues raising
* from broken hardware triggering massive amounts of interrupts and grinding
* the system to a halt.
*
* Current implementation expects that hotplug interrupt storm will not be
* seen when display port sink is connected, hence on platforms whose DP
* callback is handled by i915_digport_work_func reenabling of hpd is not
* performed (it was never expected to be disabled in the first place ;) )
* this is specific to DP sinks handled by this routine and any other display
* such as HDMI or DVI enabled on the same port will have proper logic since
* it will use i915_hotplug_work_func where this logic is handled.
