Subject: [PATCH] drm/dp_mst: Fix return code on sideband message failure

From: Rajkumar Subbiah <rsubbia@...eaurora.org>

The commit 2f015ec6eab69301fdcf54d397810d72362d7223 added some debug
code for sideband message tracing. But it seems to have unintentionally
changed the behavior on sideband message failure. It catches and returns
failure only if DRM_UT_DP is enabled. Otherwise it ignores the error code
and returns success. So on an MST unplug, the caller is unaware that the
clear payload message failed and ends up waiting for 4 seconds for the
response.

This change fixes the issue by returning the proper error code.
