Ah, I see my problem.  I had earlier only found the eDP 1.3 spec which
doesn't mention these rates.  The eDP 1.4 spec does, however.  ...and
the change log for 1.4 specifically mentions that it added 4 new link
rates and also adds the "SUPPORTED_LINK_RATES" register.

I can try to spin a v2 but for now I'll hold off for additional feedback.

I'll also note that I'd be totally OK if just the first 8 patches in
this series landed for now and someone could eventually figure out how
to make this work.  With just the first 8 patches I think we will
still be in an improved state compared to where we were before (and it
fixes the panel I care about) and someone could later write the code
to skip unsupported rates...
