The general idea LGTM, however see below.

The point I was trying to make earlier is that how can you trust
intel_dp->sink_count if intel_dp_get_dpcd failed? You don't know where
it failed, and ->sink_count may or may not have changed. Maybe it has
changed for real but you didn't have a chance to read it just yet.

So if you're returning because of !ret, *perform_full_detect may be true
or false, you don't know. I'd like the code to be explicit about what
you want the caller to do when intel_dp_get_dpcd returns false, full
detect or not.
