Apologies for taking about forever and a half to get back to this. :(

See comments inline.

So I'd think intel_dp_reuse_link_train should be exactly the same as
intel_dp_reset_link_train, except for the memset part. Maybe just look
at ->link_trained, and memset if not. And make sure you change
->link_trained at approapriate places *before* making the call.

This is an unrelated change.

I know what you mean with ->link_trained, but I think the naming is
misleading. It doesn't mean we would have a link up and running. Maybe
it should be ->train_set_valid or something?

Do this first in case we bail out in the above error handling.
