Public bug reported:

I have a Lenovo X1 Carbon with an external screen connected to a Mini DP to VGA 
adapter. External screen works fine until the display goes to sleep for 
inactivity (just the display goes to sleep, not the laptop).
When I return to the laptop, the built in screen wakes but the external screen 
does not. The screen is still detected, xrandr displays the resolution and I 
can move the cursor to the external display but the display remains off.
I have tried cycling with Fn+F7 and also tried Ctrl+Alt+F1 then Ctrl+Alt+F7. 
The only way to get the external display back on is by disconnecting the 
adapter from the laptops DP port and reconnecting.

dmesg produces:
drm:intel_dp_complete_link_train] *ERROR* failed to train DP, aborting
