[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/4] drm/i915/dp: increase i2c-over-aux retry interval on AUX DEFER

There is no clear cut rules or specs for the retry interval, as there
are many factors that affect overall response time. Increase the
interval, and even more so on branch devices which may have limited i2c
bit rates.
