Make DP fast link training option as module parameter
I wasn't able to replicate this issue of flickering screen with the HW that I
had available. However, that doesn't rule out the fact that there truly is a
problem. It seems that there are panels out there that simply doesn't like to
start DP link training with non-zero values.
The patch here makes this fast link training feature as one module parameter
(/sys/module/i915/parameters/enable_dp_flt) so you can enable or disable the
feature depending on panel support. By default this feature is disabled. The
patch applies to drm-intel-nightly.
Please, give this patch a try and report back with dmesg log if the problem
still exists.</pre>
