      drm/i915: Implement WaEdpLinkRateDataReload · 25899c59

      A lot of modern laptops use the Parade PS8461E MUX for eDP
      switching. The MUX can operate in jitter cleaning mode or
      redriver mode, the first one resulting in higher link
      quality. The jitter cleaning mode needs to know the link
      rate used and the MUX achieves this by snooping the
      LINK_BW_SET, LINK_RATE_SELECT and SUPPORTED_LINK_RATES
      DPCD accesses.
      
      When the MUX is powered down (seems this can happen whenever
      the display is turned off) it loses track of the snooped
      link rates so when we do the LINK_RATE_SELECT write it no
      longer knowns which link rate we're selecting, and thus it
      falls back to the lower quality redriver mode. This results
      in unstable high link rates (eg. usually 8.1Gbps link rate
      no longer works correctly).
      
      In order to avoid all that let's re-snoop SUPPORTED_LINK_RATES
      from the sink at the start of every link training.
      
      Unfortunately we don't have a way to detect the presence of
      the MUX. It looks like the set of laptops equipped with this
      MUX is fairly large and contains devices from multiple
      manufacturers. It may also still be growing with new models.
      So a quirk doesn't seem like a very easily maintainable
      option, thus we shall attempt to do this unconditionally on
      all machines that use LINK_RATE_SELECT. Hopefully this extra
      DPCD read doesn't cause issues for any unaffected machine.
      If that turns out to be the case we'll need to convert this
      into a quirk in the future.
