Why do the masking within the retry loop?

All of these should be in tighter scope.

That should check for DP_DOWN_REP_MSG_RDY and DP_UP_REQ_MSG_RDY only,
right? If those are not set, we didn't do anything with them, and should
not ack.

We should probably have a helper function to do the acking, similar to
intel_dp_ack_sink_irq_esi(), which could be used both by this function
and the drivers.

Please don't use a do-while when a for loop is sufficient.

	for (tries = 0; tries < 5; tries++)

and it's obvious at a glance how many times at most this runs. Not so
with a do-while where you count *re-tries*. Again, would be nice to
abstract this away in a helper function.

Above we check if there's anything to ack and bail out, and now this
clears the bits but writes them anyway.

I think the handled parameter was problematic before, but now it's even
more convoluted. What does it indicate? It used to mean you need to ack
if it's set, but now it's something different. This function is getting
very difficult to use correctly.

BR,

Same here, this acks even if it's already been acked.
