+ * 	For userspace also running on legacy drivers the "DPMS" semantics are a

+ * 	returned by the GETCONNECTOR actually reflecting reality, because many
+ * 	drivers fail to update it. For atomic drivers this is taken care of in
+ * 	drm_atomic_helper_update_legacy_modeset_state().
+ *
+ * 	The second issue is that the DPMS state is only well-defined when the
+ * 	connector is connected to a CRTC. In atomic the DRM core enforces that
+ * 	"ACTIVE" is off in such a case, no such checks exists for "DPMS".
+ *
+ * 	Finally, when enabling an output using the legacy SETCONFIG ioctl then
+ * 	"DPMS" is forced to ON. But see above, that might not be reflected in
+ * 	the software value on legacy drivers.
+ *
+ * 	Summarizing: Only set "DPMS" when the connector is known to be enabled,
+ * 	assume that a successful SETCONFIG call also sets "DPMS" to on, and
