Re: [PATCH 2/3] drm/dp/mst: Calculate total link bandwidth instead of hardcoding it

["Pandiyan, Dhinakaran" <dhinakaran.pandiyan@intel.com>]

This patch along with https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/15305/
will fix https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98141. I'd like
this to be reviewed independently since the other two patches in this
series require rework for atomic support.
