Actually this macro checks for DP_CHANNEL_EQ_BITS which is defined as:
#define DP_CHANNEL_EQ_BITS (DP_LANE_CR_DONE |           \
                            DP_LANE_CHANNEL_EQ_DONE |   \
                            DP_LANE_SYMBOL_LOCKED)
So it includes checking for Channel EQ and Clock Recovery CR bits

I agree , maybe this is not needed. I will remove this

We cannot ever retrain without a CRTC. This check is more for making sure that 
the clocks
are set up befofe we try to retrain else we will see AUX channel failures.
If I track this back in the kernel tree, this check was added to avoid the lock 
up issues on some
platforms.

The only problem with doing both these checks together is that if crtc is NULL
then we are trying to dereference a NULL pointer in the second check.
So it should be seuqential, check if crtc is active only if there is crtc 
available.
