Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915/dp: Use max params for older panels

Users reported that after commit 2bbd6dba84d4 ("drm/i915: Try to use
fast+narrow link on eDP again and fall back to the old max strategy on
failure"), the screen starts to have wobbly effect.

Commit a5c936add6a2 ("drm/i915/dp: Use slow and wide link training for
everything") doesn't help either, that means the affected panels only
work with max params.

The panels are all DP 1.1 ones, so apply max params to them to resolve
the issue.

Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/3714
Fixes: 2bbd6dba84d4 ("drm/i915: Try to use fast+narrow link on eDP again and fall back to the old max strategy on failure")
