Thanks, this makes sense.  It implies that the digital port mapping is
somehow wrong.  There are three places setting dig_port_map[], one in
intel_ddi_init(), one in intel_dp_init() and another in
intel_hdmi_init().  Try to check which function creates which object
assigned to which port number, together with drm.debug=0x0e debug
messages.
