This patch is wrong and please do not merge it as is. My hope here is that the sink will actually _tell_ us when it can't sink something. If the bug that prompted this is doing what I think it's doing, then we should see SINK_STATUS fail to light up, and we should then retry link setup at the lower link rate like the spec suggests.
