Yes that make sense.

I thought of modifying intel_dp.c/intel_dp_pre_emphasis_max(struct 
intel_dp *intel_dp, u8 voltage_swing)

to intel_dp_pre_emphasis_max(struct intel_dp *intel_dp) to return the 
max pre-emphasis per platform

independent of vswing values. This function should be similar to 
intel_dp.c/intel_dp_voltage_max(struct intel_dp *intel_dp)

And create intel_dp.c/intel_dp_possible_vswing_max(intel_dp *intel_dp, 
u8 emphasis) to return the correct vswing/pre-emphasis combination, 
given the requested

pre-emphasis value

What do you think?

Thanks

Khaled
