We have the IS_HSW_ULX check in intel_dp_max_link_bw, and that's used by
both compute_config and mode_valid. So it should work, and from a quick
look I don't see any bugs. But obviously something is busted.

Can you please printk-augment intel_dp_mode_valid and check what's going
wrong there?

Thanks, Daniel
