Yep, sorry my bad. I just tried to put the hack in the right context, but then
it does not seem to fix the bug. So I guess this relies on some other linkmode
changes in 3.12, that probaly only Jani knows about. (It's not just those 4
lines right above the hack in "intel_dp_get_config"). My guess is that Jani has
to help out here.

Cheers, Ulf
