The connector's dpms fxn is only triggered by userspace. When the driver is loaded and detected displays configured, drm core only calls the crtc and encoder's dpms functions.

Arguably, this could be called a work-around, and instead drm core should call connector's dpms functions and rely on drm_helper_connector_dpms to call encoder and crtc dpms functions. If people think it is better to fix this in drm core, and don't mind me making that change, then I will do that instead.
Sounds like you should do that in the drm core itself, so I'll not queue up this patch for now.
