[PATCH v2] phy: Add DisplayPort configuration options

[Maxime Ripard]

Hi,

Please note that I don't have access to the displayPort spec, so I'll
only comment on the content of that patch, not whether it's complete
or not.

I'm not quite sure what these flags are supposed to be doing, or what
use-cases they cover. The current API is using validate to make sure
that we can have a handshake between the caller and its PHY and must
never apply the configuration, and configure must always apply the
configuration. These flags look redundant.
