Laptop screen enabled after booting with lid closed

Before submitting your bug report:

Brief summary of the problem:

When booting docked and with the lid closed, the laptop "eDP" display is still enabled:

# cat /sys/class/drm/card1-eDP-1/enabled
enabled

I don't think this is a regression, I just hadn't noticed it before. Booting the same drive on an Intel laptop with lid closed results in eDP being disabled as it should be.
