Almost all link training tests in CTS use the TEST LANE COUNT and TEST 
LINK RATE values.
i.e 4.3.1.1 to 4.3.1.10 and 4.3.2.1 to 4.3.2.6.
This was tested using DPR100 & DPR120 compliance test tool from Unigraf.
As mentioned by Shubhangi this is just a clean up patch and further 
patches will complete
the process of using the test values in next link training.

To give some background, if you run either of the tools mentioned above, 
they give us a
short/long pulse with TEST_LINK_TRAIN request bit set, we are supposed 
to then read the
link rate and lane count values from appropriate Test DPCD registers and 
use them
in the following link training.  So as per compliance requirements you 
need to use
these values in the next link training (which is assumed to be as part 
of modeset
if we got it as part of long pulse and for short pulse we can explicitly 
retrain the link)
