I'll take your word on that. How are you checking selective update is
indeed working?

Vathsala/Rodrigo

Any idea why selective update seems to be working without aux frame
sync?

Yeah, but we do want to make sure selective update is working without
aux frame sync.

As the driver doesn't implement aux frame sync, there's not much meaning
in requiring the sink to support it. So, this patch is
Reviewed-by: Dhinakaran Pandiyan <dhinakaran.pandiyan at intel.com>

Please rewrite the commit message stating what's in the spec and include
the contradictory observation you made in the tests. Thanks for all the
work on this patch.
