[Why]
Conditions that end up modifying the global dc state must be locked.
However, during mst allocate payload sequence, lock is already taken.
With StarTech 1.2 DP hub, we get an HPD RX interrupt for a reason other
than to indicate down reply availability right after sending payload
allocation. The handler again takes dc lock before calling the
dc's HPD RX handler. Due to this contention, the DRM thread which waits
for MST down reply never gets a chance to finish its waiting
successfully and ends up timing out. Once the lock is released, the hpd
rx handler fires and goes ahead to read from the MST HUB, but now its
too late and the HUB doesnt lightup all displays since DRM lacks error
handling when payload allocation fails.

[How]
Take lock only if there is a change in link status or if automated test
pattern bit is set. The latter fixes the null pointer dereference when
running certain DP Link Layer Compliance test.
