The (pre-existing) problem with this is that we debug log we fall back
to DSC, while we don't.

Maybe we should do something like this instead, both in SST and MST code:

--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c
@@ -2644,6 +2644,11 @@ intel_dp_compute_link_config(struct intel_encoder *encoder,

+		drm_dbg_kms(display->drm, "DSC required but not available.\n");
+		return -EINVAL;
+	}
+
 	if (dsc_needed) {
 		drm_dbg_kms(display->drm,
 			    "Try DSC (fallback=%s, joiner=%s, force=%s)\n",
