SM8550 lists two interconnects for the display subsystem, mdp0-mem
(between MDP and LLCC) and mdp1-mem (between LLCC and EBI, memory).
The second interconnect is a misuse. mdpN-mem paths should be used for
several outboud MDP interconnects rather than the path between LLCC and
memory. This kind of misuse can result in bandwidth underflows, possibly
degradating picture quality as the required memory bandwidth is divided
between all mdpN-mem paths (and LLCC-EBI should not be a part of such
division).

Drop the second path and use direct MDP-EBI path for mdp0-mem until we
support separate MDP-LLCC and LLCC-EBI paths.

I think it's just for power savings, but maybe Abhinav would know
better
