[PATCH v2] drm/i915/fbdev: Enable late fbdev initial configuration

["José Roberto de Souza" <jose.souza@intel.com>]

If the initial fbdev configuration(intel_fbdev_initial_config()) runs and
there still no sink connected it will cause
drm_fb_helper_initial_config() to return 0 as no error happened(but
internally the return is -EAGAIN).
Because no framebuffer was allocated, when a sink is connected
intel_fbdev_output_poll_changed() will not execute
drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event() that would trigger another try to do the
initial fbdev configuration.

So here allowing drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event() to be executed when there
is not frambebuffer allocated and fbdev was not setup yet.

This issue also happens when a MST DP sink is connected since boot, as
the MST topology is discovered in parallel if intel_fbdev_initial_config()
is executed before the first sink MST is discovered it will cause this
same issue.

This is a follow up patch of

Changes from v1:
- not creating a dump framebuffer anymore, instead just allowing
drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event() to execute when fbdev is not setup yet.
