Instead of relying on hitting the failure case during channel 
equalization (where we notice CR is gone and execute start_link_training 
again), it's probably a better solution to restart link training again 
from the top if we end up failing early on. I can modify this patch to 
do that, since it seems like that's still within the scope of the 
operations here. Provided we put a cap on the number of attempts (2 or 3 
is what I had in mind, if you think it should be more/less we can 
discuss that), I think that's going to be the best way to avoid a black 
screen. In this instance it may delay bringing up the panel by a few 
seconds, but that seems like a reasonable tradeoff.
