[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/9] drm: Introduce EAGAIN handling for immediatelly aux retries

[Rodrigo Vivi]

The goal here is to offload aux retries handling from the
drivers to drm.

However there are 2 differents cases for retry:
1. Immediately retry - Hardware already took care of needed timeouts
   	       	       before answering that a retry is possible.
2. Busy - Wait some time and retry.

This driver introduce the support for EAGAIN that can handle the
first case and a following patch will introduce EBUSY waits,
after all drivers counting on immediately retries are changed.

v2: Rebased on top of drm_dp_helper docbook changes.
    Also this version add EAGAIN documentation and as suggested by
    Jani it inserts a comment at drm_dp_i2c_do_msg explaining EAGAIN
    timeout is already handled at i2c level.
