Manasi Navare 1e712535c5 drm/i915/dp: Link train Fallback on eDP only if fallback link BW can fit panel's native mode
This patch fixes the original commit c0cfb10d9e ("drm/i915/edp:
Do not do link training fallback or prune modes on EDP") that causes
a blank screen in case of certain eDP panels (Eg: seen on Dell XPS13 9350)
where first link training fails and a retraining is required by falling
back to lower link rate/lane count.
In case of some panels they advertise higher link rate/lane count
than whats required for supporting the panel's native mode.
But we always link train at highest link rate/lane count for eDP
and if that fails we can still fallback to lower link rate/lane count
as long as the fallback link BW still fits the native mode to avoid
pruning the panel's native mode yet retraining at fallback values
to recover from a blank screen.

v3:
* Add const for fixed_mode (Ville)
v2:
* Send uevent if link failure on eDP unconditionally

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
