I was pondering whether we should flag this for LTTPR reinit
on the next link training, but looks like we already do that
unconditionally. So the TODO in intel_dp_start_link_train()
should perhaps be removed if it's the behaviour we now want?

However, it looks like we leave link_trained==true when
using the non-modeset link retrain path. So that will again
skip the LTTPR mode change, whereas the modeset based path
will do the mode change. Doesn't really matter I suppose,
but probably good to keep that change in behaviour in mind
when we get rid of the non-modeset retrain path for good.
