[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Spam less on dp aux send/receive problems

[Mika Kuoppala]

If we encounter frequent problems with dp aux channel
communications, we end up spamming the dmesg with the
exact similar trace and status.

Inject a new backtrace only if we have new information
to share as otherwise we flush out all other important
stuff.
