This one comes from chromium tree.  I checked the DP spec but obviously
should have checked eDP too!

I mainly added this to get rid of some noise in the logs about aux
timeouts due to these messages.  But on eDP that turned out to be an
unrelated bug, and not due to us sending these messages after all.

So patch withdrawn...
