That is what generates the out-of-band hotplug event in the first
place via drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event(). The oob in that call
means out of band.

If you look at that function it calls oob_hotplug_event() callback
on the DRM connector, which is then implemented by
drm_bridge_connector_oob_hotplug_event(). This function calls uses
the normal hpd handling (shared by in-band and out-of-band) and I'm
patching it, so that the bridges are aware of hpd explicitly being
provided out-of-band.
