[PATCH v2 3/3] drm/i915/dp_mst: Work around out-of-spec adapters filtering short pulses

Some TypeC -> native DP adapters, at least the Club CAC-1557 adapter,
incorrectly filter out HPD short pulses with a duration less than ~540
usec, leading to MST probe failures.

According to the DP alt mode specification adapters should forward short
pulses with a duration greater than 250 usec. According to the DP
specificatin DP sources should detect short pulses in the
500 usec -> 2 ms range. Based on this filtering out short pulses with a
duration less than 540 usec is incorrect.

To make such adapters work add support for a driver polling on MST
inerrupt flags, and wire this up in the i915 driver. The sink can clear
an interrupt it raised after 110 ms if the source doesn't respond, so
use a 50 ms poll period to avoid missing an interrupt. Polling of the
MST interrupt flags is explicitly allowed by the DP specification.

This fixes MST probe failures I saw using this adapter and a DELL U2515H
monitor.

v2:
- Fix the wait event timeout for the no-poll case.
