Well, you can just take all those checks and put them into separate
function. Something like:

bool intel_dp_supports_mst(intel_dp) {
	if (HAS_DP_MST(i915) && !intel_dp_is_edp(intel_dp)) &&
             !(INTEL_GEN(i915) < 12 && port == PORT_A) &&
             !(INTEL_GEN(i915) <	11 && port == PORT_E))
			return true;
	return false;
}

so, then you would have it nicely looking and understandable:

if (intel_dp_supports_mst(intel_dp))
	intel_dp_mst_encoder_init(intel_dig_port,
                                  intel_connector->base.base.id);

Anyway, I'm _not_ stating that this is _always_ the best way, but 
I don't see at least any reasons currently why it couldn't be done so.
