[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/5] drm/i915/dp: Fix link retraining comment in intel_dp_long_pulse()

[Dhinakaran Pandiyan]

Comment claims link needs to be retrained because the connected sink raised
a long pulse to indicate link loss. If the sink did so,
intel_dp_hotplug() would have handled link retraining. Looking at the
logs in Bugzilla referenced in commit '3cf71bc9904d ("drm/i915: Re-apply
Perform link quality check, unconditionally during long pulse"")', the
issue is that the sink does not trigger an interrupt. We want the
->detect() from user space to check link status and retrain. Ville's
review for the original patch also indicates the same root cause.

I have also renamed long_pulse() to full_detect().
v2: Patch split and rewrote comment..
