[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Add enable_lttpr param to select between different LTTPR modes

[Khaled Almahallawy]

As LTTPR usage increases in newer platforms, and because not all LTTPRs (located
on board, Docking, active cables, or Monitors) are created equal. We face
challenges in debugging issues because of it. So we need an easy way to switch
between different LTTPR modes (at least non-LTTPR and non-transparent modes) to
debug. This patch allows us to do that by just setting driver parameters instead
of sending patches to ODMs to switch between LTTPR modes.
