Currently intel_dp_check_link_status() tries to retrain the link if
Clock recovery or Channel EQ for any of the lanes indicated by
intel_dp->lane_count is not set. However these values cached in intel_dp
structure can be stale if link training has failed for these values
during previous modeset. Or these values can get stale since we have
now re read the DPCD registers or it can be 0 in case of connected boot
case.

This patch validates these values against the common_rates and max lane
count values.

This is absolutely required incase the common_rates or max lane count
are now different due to link fallback.

v2:
* Include the FIXME commnet inside the function (Ville Syrjala)
* Remove the redundant parenthesis (Ville Syrjala)

Jani,

Should I just hold on to this until your patch series
gets merged so I can rebase this on top of it?

Regards
Manasi

I think I'd prefer that, especially so because I'm not sure that this
patch does the right thing. Yes, this checks that the values are within
bounds, but that they are within bounds doesn't make them any more valid
for the current link if they are indeed stale!

BR,
Jani.

Can they be stale and still be within the bounds somehow? That doesn't
make much sense to me. Althogh the way we shrink the set of valid params
doesn't make much sense to me either since we don't monotonically reduce
the link bw.

Maybe not. Maybe I just don't follow. Perhaps the commit message
deserves a better description of the cases where we hit the case.

Side note, it bugs me that the function name has a grammatical error.

So the idea here is to avoid using higher values of link rate/lane count
which are stale now due to an intermediate step of link rate fallback.
That is why the values cached in intel_dp structure will not be
within the bounds of common rates array and hence are termed as stale now.

Is there any other way for validating the values cached in intel_dp structure?
Since we dont zero them out on link failure, the driver can still mistaken them
as valid which is what I am trying to avoid here through this patch.

Change it to intel_dp_link_params_are_valid()?
