Not on production machines, but possibly only due to the fixup based on
HPD later. IIRC the ICL RVP I tested has such a VBT.

On the above ICL yes, in general an HDMI-only TC port will only work in
legacy mode.

Imo it's better to enable it in the only mode it works. However if VBT
says both DP and HDMI is present then the port may be DP-alt/TBT in
reality; so how about the above but only in case of
!is_legacy && !init_dp && init_hdmi
and relying on the HPD fixup otherwise?
