Hello CK,

sorry, I don't get your point.
We use "drm_dp_dpcd_readb(&mtk_dp->aux, sink_count_reg, &sink_count)"
to get sink count and use "drm_dp_dpcd_read(&mtk_dp->aux,
link_status_reg, link_status, sizeof(link_status));" to get link
status.

If we don't get any sink count, we don't need to check the link status.
Therefore, we just return if we are failed to get sink count.

BRs,
Bo-Chen
