We have at least one full_pbn==0 issue in ci:
<4>[    5.061345] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 376 at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_dp_mst_topology.c:4889 drm_dp_mst_atomic_check_mstb_bw_limit+0x193/0x1c0

https://intel-gfx-ci.01.org/tree/drm-tip/CI_DRM_8460/fi-kbl-7560u/boot0.txt

Dunno if that's the MST device reporting zero or due to some other
bug, but at least CI is currently borked on that machine.
