From: Mario Kleiner <mario.kleiner.de@xxxxxxxxx> commit 459ee1c3fd097ab56ababd8ff4bb7ef6a792de33 upstream. As observed on Apple iMac10,1, DCE-3.2, RV-730, link rate of 2.7 Ghz is not selected, because the args.v1.ucConfig flag setting for 2.7 Ghz gets overwritten by a following assignment of the transmitter to use. Move link rate setup a few lines down to fix this. In practice this didn't have any positive or negative effect on display setup on the tested iMac10,1 so i don't know if backporting to stable makes sense or not.
