It is? The DP 1.1a text for lane count is "For Rev.1.1, only the
following three values are supported. All other values are reserved." I
don't think that implies anything about what it meant in 1.0. It does
say that bits 7:5 of that register are reserved in 1.0 though; since it
doesn't have any versioning on bits 4:0 I'd think that means they're
interpreted the same in 1.0 as in 1.1.
Unless you have a copy of the 1.0 spec?
Again, not that it probably matters much. I think the installed base of
DP 1.0 sinks is zero, I've literally never seen one.
