Okay so if trying max params link training again fails on eDP, then it fallsback from max to lower values
and fallback link training continues until it can handle the fixed mode with the params or
the lowest params?
So if I understand it correctly we first try to use the optimum approach, if that fails then
we try with max params so in this iteration if it fails again then max params is still true
then it will fallback and call intel_dp_can_link_train_fallback_for_edp() and then
again keep retrying?
