Normally, we would receive a uevent coming from Linux's DRM subsystem,
which would trigger the check for disappearing/appearing resources.
However, this event is not received when X is not master (another VT
is selected), and so the userspace / desktop environment would not be
notified about the changes that happened while X wasn't master.
To fix the issue, this patch forces a refresh on EnterVT by splitting
the kms-checking code from the uevent handling into its own (exported)
function called drmmode_update_kms_state. This function is then called
from both the uevent-handling function, and on EnterVT right before
restoring the modes.
