commit 666e1960464140cc4bc9203c203097e70b54c95a upstream.

The code for detecting and updating the connector status in cdn_dp_pd_event_work() has a number of problems.

- It does not aquire the locks to call the detect helper and update the connector status. These are struct drm_mode_config.connection_mutex and struct drm_mode_config.mutex.

- It does not use drm_helper_probe_detect(), which helps with the details of locking and detection.

- It uses the connector's status field to determine a change to the connector status. The epoch_counter field is the correct one. The field signals a change even if the connector status' value did not change.

Replace the code with a call to drm_connector_helper_hpd_irq_event(), which fixes all these problems.
