I just found the main root cause of the HDMI screen blackout issue
after system resume.
* HDMI is trying to get EDID data from the monitor using I2C interface.
* But its seems i2c_transfer is getting timeout after 5 retries.
* Thus EDID data is failing, and HDMI could not able to detect the monitor.

This is the logs:

Is there any clue, how to resolve this i2c failure issue, after resume?
This does not happen in normal booting case.

These are the steps I follow:
* Boot the system normally (without display) and install all imx-drm as modules.
* Then uninstall the modules in reverse order.
* Take the snapshot of the system (suspend to disk).
* Reboot the system and boot with the image.
* Install all the modules again.
* Then launch the Weston.
* During the weston launch in the beginning we observe this error.
