When are the link status bits updated? Please remember, we need to
support all three cases:

- Native DP, native DP HPD pin handling
- Native DP, DP HPD pin not handled by the controller
- DP AltMode, DP HPD pin not used at all

In the second and the third cases we will not be getting the IRQs.
Instead one of the next bridges (connector, EC, AltMode, etc.) will send
the HPD event, which lands in the .hpd_notify() callback.
