Hello CK,

ok, I will drop this.
Actually, I change "mtk_dp_write", "mtk_dp_update_bits" and
"mtk_dp_bulk_16bit_write" to return void. I don't think we need to
handle the issue that we failed to set registers. If we failed to set
register, it's because hw is not enable.

Therefore, I drop this and we can reduce many lines of codes.
