[PATCH v2 12/21] drm/i915/dp: Use check link state work in the detect handler

[Yu, Gareth]

Hi Max, 

  Please  provide the test results.

Hi Imre,

  Meanwhile, my question here is the link status is not checked in MST mode according to the current flow. The changes below 
for MST are same as https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/591953/?series=132685&rev=6. Please check it.
