In terms of changes in terms of register configurations, replacing with
__adv7511_power_on() here would add a register write to ADV7511_REG_POWER2
as discussed before.

Also, after the patch that enables HPD, we'd also be adding the ADV7511_INT0_HPD
bit in ADV7511_REG_INT_ENABLE(0).

I am not entirely sure about what effect adding POWER2 would have. If we don't
see any negative effects because of it, I think we should be fine.

The extra HPD bit in INT_ENABLE(0) shouldn't be a problem, though. In fact, it
prevents the HPD mask from being cleared after we get_modes is called, which may
have resulted in us missing out on HPD interrupts.

Thanks,
Archit
