This seems to be a different approach to the patch Kuogee sent a week or
two ago. Can we figure out what's wrong with the DP phy starting before
the USB phy? I suppose this patch is OK as a temporary hack to keep
moving with eDP, but we really need to figure out what's wrong with DP
so this delay can be removed entirely. Has any progress been made on
that?
