Thanks to some back-and-forth on irc, airlied got this mostly working.
The working combo seems to be..

- Switch monitor to DP 1.2
- boot with radeon.mst=1
- apply the patch below

With all that, it boots up, and X starts up in 2560x1440 like it should.

The only remaining problem is there are some visible glitches, mostly noticable
while scrolling a terminal.

Happy to continue applying further debug patches if you have any more ideas.

thanks,
	Dave
