🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so the whole point of this test: it verifies that needs_dsc_aux_workaround returns false when the DPCD revision is neither 1.2 nor 1.4. yep β€” wrong rev means no workaround, and we're checking that it actually behaves. it's giving "boundary check but make it a unit test" πŸ”₯

ngl this is one of those tiny tests that keeps a whole driver honest. respect. πŸ‘‘
