Public bug reported:

[SRU Justification]

[Impact]
When the ADL-P system connects the external display via TypeC port, it will 
hang after unplugging the TypeC connector. The system will never come back 
until reboot.

[Fix]
Intel has released a patch set to fix the TypeC PHY connect/disconnect logic. 
The shift for ownership of PHY and power domain will be handled correctly for 
ADL-P.

[Test]
The ADL-P system will no longer freeze and the ownership will shift correctly 
after disconnecting the external display connects via TypeC port.

[Where problem could occur]
It's kind of a big refactor for the i915 TypeC PHY handling logic. Don't know 
if there's any problems on older platforms. Targeting only on Unstable and 
latest OEM kernel for lower risk.
