[PATCHv4 0/3] Add USB typeC based DP support for BXT platform

This patch series adds upfront link training support to enable
USB type C based DP on BXT platform.

To support USB type C alternate DP mode, the display driver needs to
know the number of lanes required by the DP panel as well as number
of lanes that can be supported by the type-C cable. Sometimes, the
type-C cable may limit the bandwidth even if Panel can support
more lanes.

The goal is to find out the number of lanes which can be supported
using a particular cable so that we can cap 'max_available_lanes'
to that number during modeset.

Patch 1/3 : Moves finding unused crtc to a common function
Patch 2/3 : Split ddi_pll_select to be able to calculate
pll config for DP during upfront link train
Patch 3/3 : Upfront implementation for BXT platform

Changes from v3:
* Used an earlier patch from Ander that splits ddi_pll_select
to be able to use it from upfront link train logic.
Changes from v2:
* Rebased on top of intel_dpll_mgr.c code.
* Use drm_atomic_commit instead of atomic_helper_dpms, since the
later uses crtc->acquire_ctx used also in legacy paths.
* Using a drm_atomic_state helps in using the shared_dpll APIs
as is, thus keeping the upfront code away from changing pll
internals directly.
* Fixed locking/retry/backoff logic in upfront according to
atomic implementation.
Changes from v1:
* Using atomic_helper_dpms() to do DPMS off for upfront link
training, instead of using load detect functions.
* Made intel_get_shared_dpll handle non-atomic paths by
duplicating the required shared_dpll_config and then working
on top of it. This helps in upfront link train code not
directly touch the 'pll/pll->config' internals.
* Fixed the link_bw update logic in intel_dp_get_link_retry_params()
for non-HBR2 panels.
* As per comments on earlier version, merged few patches
(that added new functions) with the upfront link train patch,
to facilitate easy review.
