[PATCH 2/3] drm/dp/mst: Calculate total link bandwidth instead of hardcoding it

The total or the nominal link bandwidth, which we save in terms of PBN, is
a factor of link rate and lane count. But, currently we hardcode it to
2560 PBN. This results in incorrect computation of total slots.

E.g, 2 lane HBR2 configuration and 4k at 60Hz, 24bpp mode
  nominal link bw = 1080 MBps = 1280PBN = 64 slots
  required bw 533.25 MHz*3 = 1599.75 MBps or 1896 PBN
     with +0.6% margin = 1907.376 PBN = 96 slots
  This is greater than the max. possible value of 64 slots. But, we
  incorrectly compute available slots as 2560 PBN = 128 slots and don't
  return error.

So, let's fix this by calculating the total link bandwidth as
link bw (PBN) = BW per time slot(PBN) * max. time slots , where max. time
slots is 64
