Adding intel-gfx ML to Cc.

Martin, is the machine SandyBridge or IvyBridge?

In anyway it's PCH_SPLIT and there can call both intel_hdmi_init() and 
intel_dp_init() for the same port although both functions map
intel_dig_port[].  The assumption of intel_dig_port[] reverse mapping
is that there is only a single intel_dig_port assigned to a port, but
this doesn't look correct...
