Describe the bug

After upgrading from nvidia-open 595.71.05 to 610.43.02, the internal laptop display (eDP panel) remains completely black when running in NVIDIA discrete GPU mode.

• External displays connected through HDMI and USB-C continue to work normally.
• GNOME detects the internal display correctly.
• EDID is read successfully.
• eDP connector status is "connected".
• eDP connector is "enabled".

The issue is fully reproducible and disappears immediately after downgrading back to nvidia-open 595.71.05 and nvidia-utils 595.71.05.

To Reproduce

1. Boot system in NVIDIA discrete GPU mode.
2. Install nvidia-open 610.43.02 and matching nvidia-utils.
3. Reboot.
4. Internal eDP panel remains black.
5. External HDMI and USB-C displays function normally.
6. Downgrade to nvidia-open 595.71.05 and nvidia-utils 595.71.05.
7. Reboot.
8. Internal eDP panel works normally again.
