I think now without the "Split out defaults that are set when there is no VBT" patch,
what happens is it enables DP on PORTA by default and then since there is a DP-VGA
adapter on Port E it also enables DP on Port E and since both of these ports use the
same AUX channel, it causes the AUX CH sanitization issues. Atleast that's my guess at triage.
So after the correct VBT parsing, it should actually not enable any AUX transactions
on Port A and detect that no child devices connected to Port A. So the AUX CH should
only be used for Port E and VGA output should work fine.
