Is this really required, i.e. do we have dp 1.1 machines in the wild
which advertise 5.4 but can't? In any case you also need to have a
IS_HSW || IS_BDW check here, since only those two platforms support
5.4 GHz.
I've not seen a case where a 1.1a capable device advertises HBR2,
no. I *have* seen the case where the sink reports that it only
supports RBR (1.62Ghz) but is in fact capable of 2.7Ghz. This is
more of a safety measure to eliminate potential training problems,
but is not strictly necessary to support HBR2. It does need the
IS_HSW || IS_BDW though, so I'll fix that and resend.
Can we make it IS_HSW || INTEL_INFO(dev)->gen >= 8, we can't quite
predict the future but new platforms supporting what old platforms do
support is a bet we take elsewere.

Sounds like a better solution. I should have that integrated shortly.
