Subject: Re: Thunderbolt DP oddity on v5.2.9 on iMac 12,2

G'day Mika,

I'm sending you two dmesg because with that patch applied, a warm boot 
(as in reboot) comes up with all 3 heads, but a cold boot only has the 
two. I thought that was odd, so I reproduced it a couple of times just 
to check.

So cold boot is dmesg.07 and warm boot is dmesg.06. If I cold boot I get 
2 displays. A reboot from there results in all 3.

I compiled, installed and rebooted into all 3 heads (which somewhat 
threw me, so I tried it a couple of times).

So that patch certainly made a difference. Timing/race issue?

Regards,
Brad
