Various notebooks with nvidia GPUs generate an ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE
acpi-video event when an external device gets plugged in (and again on
modesets on that connector), the default behavior in the acpi-video
driver for this is to send a KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE evdev event, which
causes e.g. gnome-settings-daemon to ask us to rescan the connectors
(good), but also causes g-s-d to switch to mirror mode on a newly plugged
monitor rather then using the monitor to extend the desktop (bad)
as KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE is supposed to switch between extend the desktop
vs mirror mode.
More troublesome are the repeated ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE events on
changing the mode on the connector, which cause g-s-d to switch
between mirror/extend mode, which causes a new ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE
event and we end up with an endless loop.
This commit fixes this by adding an acpi notifier block handler to
nouveau_display.c to intercept ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE and:
1) Wake-up runtime suspended GPUs and call drm_helper_hpd_irq_event()
on them, this is necessary in some cases for the GPU to detect connector
hotplug events while runtime suspended
2) Return NOTIFY_BAD to stop acpi-video from emitting a bogus
KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE key-press event
There already is another acpi notifier block handler registered in
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/device/acpi.c, but that is not
suitable since that one gets unregistered on runtime suspend, and
we also want to intercept ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE when runtime suspended.

Note that ACPI_VIDEO_NOTIFY_PROBE currently is a private define in
drivers/acpi/acpi_video.c, since it is passed to acpi_notifier_call_chain()
it really should be in a public header, so I've submitted a patch to
the acpi subsys to move it to include/acpi/video.h . In the mean time
this patch defines it with a #ifndef guard to allow merging without
introducing inter subsys dependencies. I will submit a follow up patch
removing the #ifndef block once both patches are in Linus' tree.
