Bug description:
  [Impact]
  X server crashes in certain cases on I+A hybrid machines with modesetting+amdgpu drivers.

  [Test case]
  Connect an external monitor, check that it doesn't crash X.

  [Regression potential]
  This commit was provided by AMD and reviewed by an NVIDIA engineer, and after a few iterations it got applied upstream. We'll test it with many driver combinations (modesetting+amdgpu, m+nvidia, m+m...) to check that they all (still) work.
