I think you are right actually, I thought a lot more about this and I
think there is always going to be some inevitable racing.

As for whether or not we can just fail if we've raced: we do need to
send a message out if the recepient isn't there so long as there's still
a part of the topology active, because payload allocations actually go
down the whole tree. For example, this is what a payload allocation on a
deeply nested MSTB actually should look like in the real world

MSTB #1
|- Port #1 (payload allocation forwards payload #1 down to MSTB #2)
|- MSTB #2 (payload allocation forwards payload #1 down to Port #4)
|- Port #3
|- Port #4 (payload allocation forwards payload #1 down to MSTB #3)
|- MSTB #3 (Payload allocation for payload #1 goes to sink)
|- Port #2

When we setup virtual channels, MSTB #1 actually does the job of
allocating a payload on MSTB #2, which does the job of allocating a
payload on MSTB #3. If MSTB #3 is removed, MSTB #1 won't actually
change any payload allocations down the topology until we tell it to.
Hence why we need to be able to actually figure out what the last
connected port was. I've confirmed this as well: AMD has pointed some
bugs out to me that I've been able to reproduce where the problems with
payload deallocation start causing downstream sinks to flicker randomly
due to leaking payloads.

So long story short: we do actually need payload messages to be as
accurate as possible with this. I think we could theoretically get
around the inherent raciness I described above by just doing something
like this:

* Find the last living relative of MSTB #3 (let's pretend it's port #4)
* Try sending a payload message to port #4, while at the same time port
#4 is removed from the topology in the real world
* When the payload message times out, check if the root of the topology
(MSTB #1) is still connected and if so, redo the search starting from
port #4
* Rinse and repeat, until either the topology itself is removed, we
reach the root of the topology and get no response, or we manage to
get a response.

We could probably use similar approaches for most of the cases where
being accurate to the real world state of the topology ends up being
important, and possibly even supplement it by querying the actual state
of the hub on failure to ensure we stay in sync.

All of that being said: I think the approach I described above can
probably be saved for another patch series. For now though, we will need
the changes in drm_dp_get_last_connected_port_to_mstb() to at least make
payload deallocation work outside of some very edge cases. I'm fine with
splitting it into another patch though if you think that'd be better
