Linus Torvalds c9354c85c1 i915: fix intel graphics suspend breakage due to resume/lid event confusion
In commit c1c7af6089 ("drm/i915: force
mode set at lid open time") the intel graphics driver was taught to
restore the LVDS mode on lid open.

That caused problems with interaction with the suspend/resume code,
which commonly runs at the same time (suspend is often caused by the lid
close event, while lid open is commonly a resume event), which was
worked around with in commit 06891e27a9
("drm/i915: fix suspend/resume breakage in lid notifier").

However, in the meantime the lid event code had also grown a user event
notifier (commit 06324194eee97a51b5f172270df49ec39192d6cc: "drm/i915:
generate a KMS uevent at lid open/close time"), and now _that_ causes
problems with suspend/resume and some versions of Xorg reacting to those
uevents by setting the mode.

So this effectively reverts that commit 06324194ee, and makes the lid
open protection logic against suspend/resume more explicit.  This fixes
at least one laptop. See
