Patch series addresses a shortcoming where we're sending a hot plug event
without passing the actual CONNECTOR that caused it. This takes into
consideration both the polling path and the HPD (Hot Plug Detect) path.
It also adds support for the vkms driver (using ConfigFS) for
propagating the CONNECTOR ID when changing the connector's status.

v5:

- vkms: add support for sending the CONNECTOR ID when hot-plugging through 
  ConfigFS - as reported by Louis, vkms can now make use of ConfigFS to 
  simulate connector status.
- vkms: add a small change to ignore previous/old drm connector status
  when sending out hot-plug uevent.

v4:

- removed the "This patch" bit - Dmitry
- added a short note when the flag is set and cleared - Dmitry
- address double dead-locking detected - kbot:

- virtual connectors do not seem have any kind of hotplug - added
  polling in vkms - as noted by Ian
- v4 is at

v3: Address comments from Dmitry

- guard connector status write with mode_config.mutex
- avoid setting up the connector status and immediately unset it. Do the
  unset in drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event/drm_kms_helper_connector_hotplug_event

v2: Address comments from Daniel

- split patch into 2, one that introduces a bool to track connector
  connection status change and a patch that uses that to be able to send
  hot plug events with the proper CONNECTOR ID to udev and further pass
  that down to user-space
- nuke out mutex when iterating connector list
- fix typo
- v2 is at

  drm: Introduce a new connector status
  drm: Propagate connector status change
  vkms: Do not send hotplug events for same connector status
  vkms: Pass the vkms connector as opposed to the vkms device
