[PATCH 2/3] drm/i915/dp_mst: Fix side-band message timeouts due to long PPS delays

The Panel Power Sequencer lock held on an eDP port (a) blocks a DP AUX
transfer on another port (b), since the PPS lock is device global, thus
shared by all ports. The PPS lock can be held on port (a) for a longer
period due to the various PPS delays (panel/backlight on/off,
power-cycle delays). This in turn can cause an MST down-message request
on port (b) time out, if the above PPS delay defers the handling of the
reply to the request by more than 100ms: the MST branch device sending
the reply (signaling this via the DP_DOWN_REP_MSG_RDY flag in the
DP_DEVICE_SERVICE_IRQ_VECTOR DPCD register) may cancel the reply
(clearing DP_DOWN_REP_MSG_RDY and the reply message buffer) after 110
ms, if the reply is not processed by that time.
Avoid MST down-message timeouts described above, by locking the PPS
state for AUX transfers only if this is actually required: on eDP ports,
where the VDD power depends on the PPS state and on all DP and eDP ports
on VLV/CHV, where the PPS is a pipe instance and hence a modeset on any
port possibly affecting the PPS state.
