[PATCH 09/17] drm/i915: Fix eDP link training when switching pipes on VLV/CHV

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com>

When switching from one pipe to another, the power sequencer of the new
pipe seems to need a bit of kicking to lock into the port. Even the vdd
force bit doesn't work before the power sequencer has been sufficiently
kicked, so this must be done before any AUX transactions are attempted.

After extensive experimentation I've determined that it's sufficient
to first write the port register with the correct values except the
port must remain disabled, then we can do a second write to enable the
port, after which the power sequencer is operational and allows the port
to start up properly.

Contrary to my earlier theories we don't need to enable the port with
the idle pattern, so let's just use training pattern 1 as that's what
other platforms use here.

v2: Refine the kick procedure
