Yes, it's just for polling, but I don't quite see the difference. A
hot-plug event notifies when the display is connected or disconnected,
and detect() tells if a display is connected. They are all about the
same thing.

This sounds like a good bit to test then. So is there something wrong
with using HPD? How does the GPIO differ from HPD bit?

I don't understand what you mean with "static". The bit changes
dynamically according to the connect/disconnect state, and the bit is
checked dynamically when detect() is called.
