We write to DP_LINK_BW_SET in drm_dp_link_configure() so I don't think
we can apply the same trick there. Also I'm not sure if it's really
worth having that here. Given that it only works if we actually read
DP_DPCD_REV, the number of locations where it can be done is fairly
small and they will look asymmetric with respect to other functions
using the drm_dp_dpcd_read/write() helpers.

So unless you feel strongly I'd prefer not to do this.
