drm/dp/mst: Sideband message transaction to power up/down nodes
The POWER_DOWN_PHY and POWER_UP_PHY sideband message transactions allow the source to reqest any node in a mst path or a whole path to be powered down or up. This allows drivers to target a specific sink in the MST topology, an improvement over just power managing the imediate downstream device. Secondly, since the request-reply protocol waits for an ACK, we can be sure that a downstream sink has enough time to respond to a power up/down request. v2: Fix memory leak (Lyude) Cc: Lyude <lyude@redhat.com> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Cc: Harry Wentland <harry.wentland@amd.com> Signed-off-by:Dhinakaran Pandiyan <dhinakaran.pandiyan@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20170907001458.9399-1-dhinakaran.pandiyan@intel.com Reviewed-by:
