This shouldn't happen since if it does we ended up stealing the encoder from the connector itself (we do check for connector_state->crtc earlier) and that would be a bug. I haven't figured out a precise theory but my guess is on the best_encoder selection, and indeed dp mst encoder selection seems to have gone belly up in 4.2 with the bisected commit.
Well, I just tested Linus's patch and it works.
BTW, is there any chance that I can suspend my laptop, and then move it from my docking station at home (where I have a Dell 30" display) to my docking station at work (where I have a Dell 24" display), and actually have the new monitor be detected? For at least the past year, I have to reboot in order to be able to use the external monitor? This used to work, but it's been a very long-standing regression. I undrstand that Multi-stream DP is a evil horrible hack, and supporting it is painful, but this used to work, and it hasn't in a long time. :-(
Relevant with this? https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89589
I wanted to check this by myself, too, as the same bug was reported to openSUSE bugzilla, but I had no hardware showing it.
