Two things need to happen:
1) IGT should skip tests requiring DPRX CRC source if not on a
   DP connector.
2) Driver should return EINVAL (or another appropriate error) if
   DPRX CRC source is requested when the CRTC is not connected to
   a DP display. Alternatively we could make sure that DPRX is
   not advertised as a CRC source in this case but I'm not sure
   how difficult that would be.

Like Jani said, I don't think the current patch is the correct one
as it doesn't get to the root cause. The root cause fix should be
in the CRC debugfs handling code.
