Thanks Lyude.
So based on the imitial comments from Jani N, the recommendation was to disconnect
downclock_mode from drrs_init so that user can set downclock mode
independently from drrs mode.
Jani,
So we would need following changes:
* Set the panel->downclock_mode in edp_init_connector() using intel_find_panel_downclock()
* Add downclock_mode->clock when we check against available BW in mode_valid
* Also use that in compute_config
* Then check against downclock_mode on link training fallback
Any more changes recommended here?
