New description:

 The removed parts of the `tcRnImports` function in the attached patch says
 that there is a check in `LoadIface.loadInterface` and this is why it's
 needed to add the plugin dependencies to the EPS.

 But actually [[GhcFile(compiler/iface/LoadIface.lhs#L227)]] says that the
 check is no longer there.
