[drm-dp] dp_ctrl_push_idle: PUSH_IDLE pattern timedout

Other basic use-cases still seem to work fine hence add a
a module parameter to allow toggling psr enable/disable till
PSR related issues are hashed out with IGT.

For the reference: Bjorn reported that he has issues with VT on a
PSR-enabled laptops. This patch fixes the issue for him

Module parameters are almost never warranted, and it is definitely not
the right way to handle a broken implementation.

I've just sent a revert that unconditionally disables PSR support until
the implementation has been fixed:

I dont completely agree with this. Even the virtual terminal case was reported to be fixed by one user but not the other. So it was probably something missed out either in validation or reproduction steps of the user who reported it to be fixed OR the user who reported it not fixed. That needs to be investigated now.

We should have ideally gone with the modparam with the feature patches itself knowing that it gets enabled for all sinks if PSR is supported.

I had discussed with Rob that till we have some more confidence with the reported issues we would go with the modparam so as to not do the full revert.

In this particular case, the one line revert is not really a deal breaker. In some other implementations, it might not really be so trivial to revert the feature with a one line change.

So I would like to understand what is the concern with the mod param if the maintainers are onboard with it.
