I assume this is due to the lspcon used in your motherboard/SoC itself.
Which is converting DP->HDMI. For i915 LSPCon is external device
authenticate with it based on the LSPCon's hdcp capability and requested
HDCP type. And authentication between LSPCon and Display sink connected
to it is LSPCon's resposibility. I915 will assume LSPCon has followed
the HDCP spec for repeater.
