Eh, this occurs not just during link detection, but also during
intel_enable_dp, so this comment does not hold.  The biggest
issue of this function is that it can fail but never propagates
that failure, which itself breaks the users and API expectations,
as neither the driver or userspace is aware that it is required to
takeaction.
