Well, you can just take all those checks and put them into separate
function. Something like:
bool intel_dp_supports_mst(intel_dp) {
if (HAS_DP_MST(i915) && !intel_dp_is_edp(intel_dp)) &&
!(INTEL_GEN(i915) < 12 && port == PORT_A) &&
!(INTEL_GEN(i915) < 11 && port == PORT_E))
return true;
return false;
}
so, then you would have it nicely looking and understandable:
if (intel_dp_supports_mst(intel_dp))
intel_dp_mst_encoder_init(intel_dig_port,
intel_connector->base.base.id);
Anyway, I'm _not_ stating that this is _always_ the best way, but
I don't see at least any reasons currently why it couldn't be done so.
