When using Xorg/Logind and an external monitor connected with an MST dock. After disconnecting the external monitor, switching to VT may not work, the (internal) monitor sill display Xorg, and you can't see what you are typing in the VT.
This is related to commit e2809c7db818df6bbd0edf843e1beb2fbc9d8541 which introduced delayed hotplug for MST, and commit dc5bdb68b5b369d5bc7d1de96fa64cc1737a6320 which introduced a workaround for Xorg and logind, and add a force parameter to __drm_fb_helper_restore_fbdev_mode_unlocked() in this case.
When switching to VT, with Xorg and logind, if there are pending hotplug event (like MST unplugged), the hotplug path may not be fulfilled, because logind may drop the master a bit later. It leads to the console not showing up on the monitor.
So in this case, forward the "force" parameter to the hotplug event, and ignore if there is a drm master in this case.
