The dp link training code is botched since if it disables the port if it
doesn't work out. Which results in warns like yours but on some systems also in
deadlocks since the display pipe stops working when we expect it to run. The
fix is to gracefully fail the link training by simple enabling the link at
conservative settings and keep on pumping pixels into the air (like we do with
all other outputs).

The comment in dp_hotplug is simply historical bonghits.
