    drm/i915: PSR: Increase idle_frames

    drm/i915: HSW/BDW PSR Set idle_frames = VBT + 1

without the hack to use 2 idle frames when VBT says 1. We keep the + 1
just for safety, although I haven't really figured out why that one
exists.

It's nonsense. idle_frames = number of frames where the screen is
entirely idle before we think about entering PSR.

idle_patter = part of link training, and we probably totally butchered
link training because we told the hw to entirely skip it. No wonder
PSR occasionally just fell over.

I suspect the reason we've increased idle frames is that it makes PSR
entry slightly less likely, and more likely to happen in a quite
system, which probably increased the changes the panel came back up
without link training. The proper fix is to implement link training
for PSR.
