Re: [PATCH] drm/amd/display:Check dp_128b_132b_supported_link_rates.raw before link_rate setting

Hi Jackie,
This patch causes a regression when used with LG UltraGear 4K144 (DP), connected to Realtek DP2 USB-C hub. It is expected to be connecting at UHBR link rate, but we are observing HBR3 instead.
Thanks,
George

[WHY]
In the evolution of displays from DP 1.4 to DP 2.0, due to considerations
some factors,such as cost, some displays support 128b/132b encoding but
do not support UHBR rate transmission. The values can be read from DPCD
register address as below.
0x00006 is 03
0x02215 is 00
For such displays, the current kernel reports the following error message.
[drm:dp_retrieve_lttpr_cap [amdgpu]] *ERROR* retrieve_link_cap: Invalid RX
128b_132b_supported_link_rates
[HOW]
Add new judgment: if all bits in dp_128b_132b_supported_link_rates.raw
are non-zero, then further determine the specific UHBR type; otherwise,
determine that the display does not support UHBR.
