Hmm I wonder if we could test for HPD floating and then disable
cec? Then we would know nothing is connected, right?

From distro kernel point of view we should find some way to
disable cec dynamically. Can we maybe do something via /sys or
some command line option for cec.ko?

Then if we find a way to check for floating HPD pin or something
we could support that too.
