[PATCH v3] drm/i915/dp: Give up link training clock recovery after 10 failed attempts

[Nathan Ciobanu <nathan.d.ciobanu@linux.intel.com>]

Limit the link training clock recovery loop to 10 failed attempts at
LANEx_CR_DONE per DP 1.4 spec section 3.5.1.2.2. Some USB-C MST hubs
cause us to get stuck in this loop indefinitely requesting

    voltage swing: 0, pre-emphasis level: 2
    voltage swing: 1, pre-emphasis level: 2
    voltage swing: 0, pre-emphasis level: 3

over and over: max_vswing is never reached, drm_dp_clock_recovery_ok()
never returns true and voltage_tries always gets reset to 1. The driver
sends those values to the hub but the hub keeps requesting new values
every time in the pattern shown above.

Changes in v2:
    - updated commit message (DK, Manasi)
    - defined DP_DP14_MAX_CR_TRIES (Marc)
    - made the loop iterate for max 10 times (Rodrigo, Marc)

Changes in v3:
    - changed error message to use DP_DP14_MAX_CR_TRIES
