Yeah, seems quite reasonable.
I can't find any reason why the lane count and link bw values are set in
fixup_mode and not just in intel_dp_set_mode. If we moved that, we could
use the bpp value computed in intel_display.c.
There's a weird mixture of code in ironlake_crtc_mode_set where it calls
intel_edp_link_config and uses those values when setting the CPU M/N
values for non-PCH eDP panels. That would also need fixing.

The more we clean things up, the easier fixing bugs is in the future.

The simple way to unify them would be to use
intel_choose_pipe_bpp_dither from the i9xx_crtc_mode_set path. Perhaps
that function could codify the currently simplistic rule used on i9xx?
