whispers b1371e26ae nixos/displaylink: fix with strict shellcheck
using the displaylink module currently fails with
`systemd.enableStrictShellChecks = true;`. there are two warnings:

- `read` without `-r` can technically mangle backslashes, as it acts as
  an escape character by default. as far as we can tell, this shouldn't
  cause problems, but it seems like a harmless and technically-correct
  fix.
- `SUSPEND_RESULT` is unused. as far as i can tell, this indeed seems to
  be the case, so this makes sense to remove.
