We tried implementing a interrupt based HPD functionality as HPD signal 
is connected to GPIO0_18 pin, we were able to get interrupt based HPD 
working however to route this signal to SoC we are loosing audio 
capability due to MUX conflict. Due to board level limitations to
route the signal to SoC, we will not be able to support interrupt
based HPD and polling seems a possible way without loosing on audio 
capability.
