Trying to read more than what fits into a single dp aux transaction (to
test the partial reads/writes stuff) and trying to read invalid offsets
(to high address). Not sure whether we should do any writing tests since
that might cause trouble ...

Yeah that's what we usually do. There's igt_require/skip_on for these kind
of soft failures which should just result in a testcase getting skipped.
Note that only the first (test-)read should do that, just in case there's
bugs in the real testcase later on (e.g. the partial read stuff might give
a bogus error when it shouldn't). Also it would be good to encode the
errno value we expect in that case too. ETIMEDOUT seems to be what at
least i915 will return if nothing is connected (compared to -EIO which is
more an indication of the dp aux controller being toast).
