I wondered if following the standard practice of one change per commit
is indeed not practical as you do it in this case.

I don't see any audio specific parameters in the calculation. This
function is also called for non-DP encoders (HDMI) and for DP encoders
it's called only if the DP sink supports audio.

Isn't it supposed to be a generic (not audio specific) DP state
calculated elsewhere (intel_dp.c)?

Would be good to figure out and comment here what the 3 and 5 symbols
stand for.

This looks incorrect as the units for compressed_bpp_x16 and pipe_bpp
are different.

I don't think it's worth adding separate variables for lane_count,
htotal, hactive.

To get LL instead of ML symbol cycles as required by bspec, you should
pass here lane_count=4 always, independent of the actual lane_count in
crtc_state.

This expects bpp_x16 units, but pipe_bpp that would be passed here has
different units.

Not sure what the above division adjusts for, I think it should be just

	min_hblank = htotal_sym_cycles - hactive_sym_cycles

It's not clear why this programming is audio specific, based on my
earlier comment above.
