This is also called from dp_ctrl_on_stream() and
dp_ctrl_reinitialize_mainlink(). In the dp_ctrl_on_stream() case we may
divide the pixel_rate by 2 with widebus. We could move the
dp_ctrl_on_link() code here, but then we also need to move widebus, and
then I'm not sure which pixel rate to use.

It looks like the test code doesn't care about widebus? And similarly,
we may run the pixel clk faster until we get a modeset and then divide
it for widebus. Is that why you're suggesting to check
!ctrl->panel->dp_mode.drm_mode.clock? I hesitate because it isn't a
direct conversion, instead it checks some other stashed struct member.

I'll also note that dp_ctrl_enable_mainlink_clocks() doesn't really use
this argument except to print the value in drm_dbg_dp(). Maybe we should
simply remove it from here instead?

This is also affected by widebus and if the function is called from
dp_ctrl_on_stream() or dp_ctrl_on_stream_phy_test_report(). Maybe it
would be better to inline dp_ctrl_enable_stream_clocks() to the
callsites? That would probably simplify things because the function is
mostly a wrapper around a couple functions.
