[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 02/10] drm/i915: fix FDI lane calculation

From: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni at intel.com>

The previous code was making the bps value 5% higher than what the
spec says, which was enough to make certain VGA modes require 3 lanes
instead of 2, which breaks Haswell since it only has 2 FDI lanes. For
previous gens this was not a problem, since requiring more lanes than
the needed is ok, as long as you have all the lanes.

Notice that this might improve the case where we use pipes B and C on
Ivy Bridge since both pipes only have 4 lanes to share (see
ironlake_check_fdi_lanes).

We still need to code to refuse modes requiring more than 2 lanes on
Haswell.
