This should be handled the same as if there were a cable incapable of achieving a link rate. Adding the link rate to the device tree (at least on the dp block) seems suspicious. If you really wanted to model the redriver's limitations in software, you'd probably want to introduce a bridge driver/connector which rejects modes that cannot be achieved by the redriver. This should prevent the dp driver from trying to train at the unsupported rates.
