There was this DP->VGA adaptor that seems to require that we set D0
explicitly:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99114#c5

But it's an odd behaviour, the DPCD read itself succeeds, only reading a
certain register fails (DPCD_SINK_COUNT). Based on the DP spec a sink
should respond to AUX transfers even after being put to D3, possibly
with a longer wake-up delay (up to 20ms AFAIR).
