Yes, leave the comment. Or better yet, move into
intel_dp_link_params_is_valid() and maybe reword a bit to something
like:

"FIXME: we need to synchronize the current link parameters with hardware
readout ..."

to make it it clear that it's actually referring to the current link
params and not something else.
