Bug wise, this is the wrong solution. Because it will reintroduce the
faulty FORCE_STOP_STATE. Also keep in mind, my fixes commit is/was 
already
backported to the stable series.

See also the discussion at [1]. Unfortunately, there was no conculusion 
yet.
I think [2] is the proper resolution, at least for the commit 
b2fe2292624a
("drm: bridge: samsung-dsim: enter display mode in the enable() 
callback")
I'm not sure in what state the drm-misc tree is.
