This patch does the following:
- Restricts usage of live status check for HDMI detection.
   While testing certain (monitor + cable) combinations with
   various intel  platforms, it seems that live status register
   doesn't work reliably on some older devices. So limit the
   live_status check for HDMI detection, only for platforms
   from gen7 onwards.

Not good enough. We have regressions reported on IVB at least.
Also I'm not convinced more recent platforms are any necessarily
better here.
Thanks for pointing out the miss for IVB. I will add skip for that.
We have tested VLV, CHT SKL and BXT with this code, so we should be good with those. Anything particular in your mind ?

- Cleans up the retry logic.
   There is an extra 'if (try)' check, which can be avoided by
   changing the logic slightly, keeping the delay as same(80ms)

I wouldn't call a goto loop clean.

I know, its flushing my pipeline, and its not the best thing to do. But makes code more readable, and removes one (if) condition, which was getting executed for every run of the loop. So I guess still some CPU cycles saved in the end :)
