Hopefully this can simplify the process...

It downloads the current DisplayLink, then updates the EVDI folder from the above instructions...

[AS PER BELOW - I've updated my script to allow for newer DisplayLink updated to not be automatically be patched]

##IMPORTANT##
You may also need to run this to start the service after reboot:

sudo systemctl start displaylink-driver.service

Let me know if it helps

Thanks for this but I'm getting a 404 trying to download your script?

Tested on Ubuntu 20.04, kernel version 5.10.2 (-surface).
Hope that helps.

Yep that works perfect for me on 5.10.4 0 - thanks so much!
