Using DP_ADJUST_REQUEST_POST_CURSOR2 has been deprecated since DP 1.3 published in 2014, and Tegra is the only user of drm_dp_get_adjust_request_post_cursor().
I see POST_CURSOR2 is used here too:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/core/dc_link_dp.c
Looks like we read and parse that in the admgpu driver without using drm_dp_get_adjust_request_post_cursor.
Right, and probably that could be switched to use it, but I'm not sure what the impact of the larger link_status read is.
I don't have a strong feeling but I liked your original patch a bit better. I'm not sure what it means when part of a spec is deprecated. Once a spec is written display vendors might implement it. We should make sure that displays like that are always handled in a sane manner.
Jani, Dave, any guidance here? I'm fine with whatever, but the current code is for sure broken. ;)
