IIRC it was 250 usec -> 2 ms as well in the DP spec.

500 usec -> 1 ms is the duration of the short hpd
the signalling side should use.

First I thought this was changing the behaviour when the callback
isn't provided, but then I noticed the ?: stuff for the timeout.

I think this stuff deserves a comment to explain why we would
ever do such a thing instead of simply waiting like we did before.

I might suggest putting this code right next to intel_hpd_irq_handler()
so that people can actually see it when working on the hotplug code.

I guess a bit of docs for this might be nice. Maybe s/update/poll/
might make the intention more clear? Not sure.
