Very thanks for sending the HPD IRQ series 
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/151522/. it very helpful for 
TYPE-C MST.

I’ve been testing it locally based on HPD refator series, and TYPE-C 
basic plug case works on my side (although with some local modify, maybe 
now it is workaround). At least the IRQ is being delivered correctly now 
and the simplest case works. It still need to do some additional testing.

There is a small question:
When do you plan to merge the HPD refactor series? and could you please 
rebase the irq series patch to HPD refactor series ? so that i can keep 
MST  depend on those 2 series.
