https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b49420d6a1aeb399e5b107fc6eb8584d0860fbd7
 will fix it. Need to collect more information and report to the author of the 
commit

[Test Case]
1. Make sure no external monitor connected
2. Power on the particular machine
3. Issue the command on Terminal `DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -q`.
4. Check if there's a  "Unknown 23" monitor" on the display list

[Where problems could occur]
Need to check on more machines with different configurations. It only happens 
on 6.11 and it only affects the SCREEN INFO displayed.
