Source driver already set sink power state to D3 in intel_ddi_post_disable_dp().
We learned from LSPCON vendor that configure power state to D3 must be the latest AUX command.
Any aux communication after that, LSPCON will be wake up until source set it to D3 next time.

Some user space application (ex: chrome os) used IOCTL to monitor external display's connection.
intel_dp_detect() will be called and try to read sink's info via AUX. In this case, LSPCON will
be active again. If we found there is LSPCON on this port and no more sink connected.
Source driver set power state to D3 here to make LSPCON enter standby mode.

Sorry I miss to modify the error messages here. I will fix it later.
