On certain platforms, Display HDMI HDA codec was not going to sleep state
after the use when links are powered down after turning off the display
power. As per the HW recommendation, links are powered down before turning
off the display power to ensure that the codec goes to sleep state.

Are we sure there's no dependencies here?

If you are referring to dependencies to other patches, not that I can think of. Based on timelines there isn't a strong link with 4.19: the patch was initially submitted in August (and missed), before v4.19 came out, and has also been used in 4.14 backports.
