The mask register bitfields are different from the INT_STATUS register.
The INT_STATUS register has additional bits [31:28] which indicates the HPD state machine
status and [3:0] indicates the actual generated/set interrupt. The fields [3:0] are similar to
the mask and ack interrupts.

#define DP_DP_HPD_STATE_STATUS_CONNECTED        (0x40000000)
#define DP_DP_HPD_STATE_STATUS_PENDING          (0x20000000)
#define DP_DP_HPD_STATE_STATUS_DISCONNECTED     (0x00000000)
#define DP_DP_HPD_STATE_STATUS_MASK             (0xE0000000)

So, earlier I returned isr & (mask | DP_DP_HPD_STATE_STATUS_MASK);

Actually, there is no reason to do this. We can just do the below:
return isr & mask;

There is no caller for raw status. All interrupts are unmasked for DP.
While handling the aux interrupts generated during the transfer call from panel probe,
we read that the HPD interrupt status [3:0] bit0 is set and proceed to handle connect like DP.
We experimented to find out that the connect interrupt is not generated but just the status
bit is set.

As the interrupts are generated over a single MDSS line, the controller driver has to read all the
interrupt status registers and handle all the set interrupt bits. So, while handling aux transfer
interrupts, we were proceeding to handle connect interrupt also as a consequence.
