I don't have a DP spec. I find one in [1] but I'm not sure it's real
spec or not. If it's real, in section 3.1.3.2, it describe:

3.1.3.2 Hot Plug/Unplug Detection
One signal (HPD) is used by a device (an Upstream device) to detect
that a Downstream port on the device has been connected to another
device (the Downstream device). Implementation of HPD is optional for
an embedded link configuration. At least a “trickle power” must be
present both in the Upstream and Downstream devices for a Hot Plug
event to be detected. 

I focus on the statement "Implementation of HPD is optional for an
embedded link configuration". I'm not sure what does 'optional' mean.
Does it mean eDP panel without HPD signal is possible? If so, I think
driver should support eDP panel without HPD signal. Maybe I
misunderstanding this spec. Please explain for me.

CK
