I think in general you can assume that if i915 dp sink handling is
special it's because we have more testing on various broken hw out
there.

I'd be fairly easy to keep an internal __drm_dp_aux_read (need it
anyway to implement this trick) and use that in i2c. At least that's
what I'd do without any evidence that we need to make this wake dance
also for i2c transactions. i2c uses a special dp-aux mode on the wire,
so makes some sense if it's different. See also the recent work from
Ville to tune the i2c dp-aux timeouts and retries, it really seems to
be a world of its own a bit.
