Imre Deak 882554042d drm/i915: Fix the MST PBN divider calculation
Atm the driver will calculate a wrong MST timeslots/MTP (aka time unit)
value for MST streams if the link parameters (link rate or lane count)
are limited in a way independent of the sink capabilities (reported by
DPCD).

One example of such a limitation is when a MUX between the sink and
source connects only a limited number of lanes to the display and
connects the rest of the lanes to other peripherals (USB).

Another issue is that atm MST core calculates the divider based on the
backwards compatible DPCD (at address 0x0000) vs. the extended
capability info (at address 0x2200). This can result in leaving some
part of the MST BW unused (For instance in case of the WD19TB dock).

Fix the above two issues by calculating the PBN divider value based on
the rate and lane count link parameters that the driver uses for all
other computation.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
