I'm not sure why we need any change to the core DRM code. The HDMI and
DP drivers will be told when to turn the monitors on and off, and that's
the appropriate time to control whether audio is routed to them. Hotplug
is considered simply a notification to user space that something has
changed -- user space is in charge of configuring which outputs are in
use.
