I think we should not add this line.
DIP Port Select [Bit 30:29 ]of register AUD_DIP_ELD_CTRL_ST is ReadOnly.

For DP MST, I think the device select happens in both i915 driver and
HD-Audio driver:
- For i915 driver, it should select which transcoder/pipe is connected to a
device on a port. MST allows 3 devices on a port. 
Could someone guide me to the code?
The Bit 30:29 just reflect the selection, although I think this is not enough
because it only tell the port number, but now we hope know the device
entry on a port.

- For audio driver, it should select which convertor is connected to a device
of a codec pin (pin is a mapping for a DDI port). We need to add the support
in HD-A driver. The default device entry is 0 for a pin. Current HD-A driver
does not handle other 2 device entries on a pin.

Thanks
