I think I'd rather you added a special "probe" function for this
specific purpose. I think drm_dp_dpcd_access() is a too generic low
level function to export, and runs the risk of complicating any
potential future refactoring of the DP AUX code.

Something like this:

ssize_t drm_dp_dpcd_probe(struct drm_dp_aux *aux, unsigned int offset);

And you could reuse that for the wakeup in drm_dp_dpcd_read() too.
