Well, we know for sure that fdi link training is broken - it doesn't match
at all what the spec says we should do. I've been working on this lately,
since in quite a few circumstances the link train fails without the
relevent bits indicating so. While testing I've also noticed that this
entire thing is highly timing dependent, e.g. denpending upon which
desktop is running and which tool I use to change the configuration it
fails or succeeds.

So I have no suggestions for what could help your system and what should
get backported, since the current code is still broken.
