[WHY] Empty SST TUs are illegal to transmit over a USB4 DP tunnel. Current policy is to configure stream encoder to pack 2 pixels per pclk even when ODM combine is not in use, allowing seamless dynamic ODM reconfiguration. However, in extreme edge cases where average pixel count per TU is less than 2, this can lead to unexpected empty TU generation during compliance testing. For example, VIC 1 with a 1xHBR3 link configuration will average 1.98 pix/TU. [HOW] Calculate average pixel count per TU, and block 2 pixels per clock if endpoint is a DPIA tunnel and pixel clock is low enough that we will never require 2:1 ODM combine.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
