[Why]
We must implement an ACPI re-timer programming interface and notify
ACPI driver whenever a PHY transition is about to take place.
Because some trace lengths on certain platforms are very long,
then a re-timer may need to be programmed whenever a PHY transition
takes place. The implementation of this re-timer programming interface
will notify ACPI driver that PHY transition is taking place and it
will trigger the re-timer as needed.
First we need to gather retimer information from ACPI interface.
Then, in the PRE case, the re-timer interface needs to be called before we call
transmitter ENABLE.
In the POST case, it has to be called after we call transmitter DISABLE.
