Good to know it's not just my device then ;)

Since I imagine rb3gen2 uses a different redriver setup compared to FP5,
I wouldn't say that's at fault for now? And at least my ptn36502 driver
only has very little difference between 2-lane and 4-lane setup, only
setting the mode to DP-only and 4-lane (vs USB+DP and 2-lane), nothing
else.
