Subject: TGL: : No video output on external monitor after unplug and re-plug
 the cable

We found another bug after the fix of
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/2538. The external
monitor is also connected via WD19's HDMI/DisplayPort just as #2538.
However, the display monitor can only be detected and show output at
the very first time we power on the WD19 dock. If we unplug the cable
and replug again, the monitor seems to be detected but there's no
video output.

When we power on the WD19 dock with cable connected to the monitor,
the drm kernel log shows as follows

 i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:intel_get_hpd_pins.isra.0 [i915]] hotplug

Then I replug the cable, the intel_power_well_enable() in
intel_dp_aux_xfer() shows "enabling DC off" power domain instead of
enabling AUX D TC1. After that, the flooded i915 0000:00:02.0:
[drm:intel_dp_aux_xfer [i915]] AUX D/port D: timeout (status
0x7d4003ff) keeps show up and no video output.

I filed a bug on
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/3407 and also
uploaded the journal log  with kernel boot parameter
"drm.debug=0x10e".

Can anyone suggest what happens at the replug? What can we do to
identify the cause? Thanks

Chris
