Subject: drm/dp_mst: Don't report ports connected if nothing is attached to them

From: Imre Deak <imre.deak at intel.com>

commit 873e5bb9fbd99e4a26c448b5c7af942a6d7aa60d upstream.

Reporting a port as connected if nothing is attached to them leads to
any i2c transactions on this port trying to use an uninitialized i2c
adapter, fix this.

Let's account for this case even if branch devices have no good reason
to report a port as plugged with their peer device type set to 'none'.
