This looks like it's probably an issue with the physical link.  The system initially links trains successfully at 162000 with 2 lanes, but after running for a while that configuration fails and it has to downgrade to 1 lane.  Even with 1 lane there are a few sporadic failures and since we're already at the lowest rate and lowest lane count we get the error messages from the log here.

We may need to double check that the cable hasn't come loose on this machine and/or replace it with a new cable.  As far as I can see, this doesn't appear to be a software issue.

SKL-GUC is running with two dummy displays: HDMI and VGA dongles. Failing DP probe is probably the VGA dongle, looking at the 1024x resolution.

As this VGA dongle is not a good representative of real hardware, we could consider this transient issue with this particular dongle and continue without it. Would this be good resolution for this issue?

Makes sense.  That sounds reasonable to me.
