The spec does leave it a bit open on this one:

115h: LINK_RATE_SET and TX_GTC_CAPABILITY
• DPCD 00001h = 00h/DPCD 02201h = 00h – Source device shall use this field to choose
the link rate, and the Sink device shall ignore DPCD 00100h
• DPCD 00001h/DPCD 02201h = Valid link rate – Source device may optionally choose
a link rate associated with HBR3, HBR2,HBR, –or– RBR by writing to DPCD 00100h

So the 2nd point here does mentions that sinks can optionally use value of 00100h
if 2201h is not 00. So programming a value to this DPCD is not right unless we program
the right value (not 0). 

I feel safe way would be be to go with LINK_BW_SET for DP1.3 and for DP1.4+ always use
LINK_RATE_SET and have it mutually exclusive. 

Some TCONs would have ignored and we got lucky but we can't leave it ambiguous, we will be compliant
to spec if we don't write 0x100. So let's go with this change.
