    drm/i915: reverse dp link param selection, prefer fast over wide again

The commit lead to 2 lanes at 5.4 Gbps being used instead of 4 lanes at
2.7 Gbps on the affected machines. Link training succeeded for both, but
the screen remained blank with the former config. Further investigation
showed that 4 lanes at 5.4 Gbps worked also.

The root cause for the blank screen using 2 lanes remains unknown, but
apparently the driver for a certain other operating system by default
uses the max available lanes. Follow suit on Broadwell eDP, for at least
until we figure out what is going on.
