Re-reading the code, a DRM connector is created whenever the MST port is
an output port, so even in the case of an output branch port.

I'm still not sure why we can't register/unregister the I2C bus whenever
creating/removing the DRM connector. That's also the scope of the AUX
bus, which is what I2C depends on, and if a port doesn't support I2C
messaging then the corresponding AUX messages would be NAKed.
