** Description changed:

- From a private bug:
- "Currently, NVIDIA and modesetting drivers are using same output names, that 
creates confusion for xrandr clients like gnome-setting-daemon or xrandr 
utility.
+ [Impact]
+ Currently, NVIDIA and modesetting drivers are using same output names, that 
creates confusion for xrandr clients like gnome-setting-daemon or xrandr 
utility.
  
  When modesetting outputs act as slave for other x-screen (like NVIDIA
  X-screen here), modesetting driver uses different scheme of output names
  to avoid kind of confusion we are seeing here. There is a bug in
  modesetting X-driver gets shipped with X-server, which disables slave
- output's name scheme."
+ output's name scheme.
  
  From a reviewed upstream patch:
  
  "Commit c7e8d4a6ee9542f56cd241cf7a960fb8223a6b22 had already
  unifdef MODESETTING_OUTPUT_SLAVE_SUPPORT but commit
  9257b1252da9092ddc676fec9aabe2b33dfad272 didn't notice that."
  
  so we need to backport that to zesty/yakkety/xenial.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ Enable dGPU, test that output to DP works.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ There should be none, as this leftover was a simple mistake that shouldn't be 
there.
