I get a blank screen when I use the VGA adapter, and with the dual-link
DVI adapter I get a barely responsive machine continually printing
[ 1076.439623] [drm:intel_dp_complete_link_train] *ERROR* failed to train DP, aborting
as described at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=843779#c8
And a blank screen.

I thought someone had said they'd got it working with a native DP
monitor, rather than the converters.

I think your patch won't cover the 8,3.
