FWIW, that change should have no direct effect on whether the display is
considered connected or disconnected. The only change is that when the driver
is notified that a DP display is "disconnected" (which can also happen without
a physical disconnection, e.g. if the display is turned off), it doesn't
immediately turn off the GPU's DP source anymore, but waits until either
userspace asks to turn it off, or it gets notified that a display is
"connected" again. Both "disconnect" / "connect" hotplug events are sent to
userspace before and after this change. I suspect that immediately turning off
the DP source simply happened to delay sending the "disconnect" hotplug event
to userspace enough to avoid the issue on your system.
