commit fc22b787890f9f9067fd130feec42297a4ee62ba upstream.

Once we've determined that the sink is MST capable we never end up
running through the full detect cycle again, despite getting HPDs.
Fix tht by ripping out the incorrect piece of code responsible.

This got broken when I moved the long HPD handling to the ->detect()
hook, but failed to remove the leftover code.
