For BSW platform, 
it seems 10ms delay of hot-plug detecting is not enough and to cause high fail-rate on old HDMI monitor, and I would like correct it. 

Then user needs to wait screen blank for 2 mins or re-plugin cable (impact to user experience).

Thanks for your review.

Gary

Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/i915: Correct max delay for HDMI hotplug live status checking

The total delay of HDMI hotplug detecting with 30ms have already been split into a resolution of 3 retries of 10ms each, for the worst cases. But it still suffered from only waiting 10ms at most in intel_hdmi_detect(). This patch corrects it by reading hotplug status with 4 times at most for 30ms delay.

v2:
- straight up to loop execution for more clear in code readability
- mdelay will replace with msleep by Daniel's new patch

	drm/i915: mdelay(10) considered harmful

- suggest to re-evaluate try times for being compatible to old HDMI monitor
