AFAICT, this patch is not correct as the hotplug detect signal is
connected directly to the display controller on (these) Qualcomm SoCs
and is already handled by its driver.

Describing it as you do here leads to less accurate delays, see commits:
	
	2327b13d6c47 ("drm/panel-edp: Take advantage of wait_hpd_asserted() in struct drm_dp_aux").
	3b5765df375c ("drm/panel: atna33xc20: Take advantage of wait_hpd_asserted() in struct drm_dp_aux")

Perhaps you lose some other functionality too.

I checked the firmware configuration for this pin on my T14s, which
does not match what you have here. Instead the function is set to
"edp0_hot" which forwards the signal to the display controller which
already handles the signal on panel power on. (And there is also no
internal pull up enabled).

We may want to describe this pin configuration somewhere, but that's a
separate issue.
