drm/dp: clamp PWM bit count to advertised MIN and MAX capabilities
According to the eDP specification (VESA Embedded DisplayPort Standard
v1.4b, Section 3.3.10.2), if the value of DP_EDP_PWMGEN_BIT_COUNT is
less than DP_EDP_PWMGEN_BIT_COUNT_CAP_MIN, the sink is required to use
the MIN value as the effective PWM bit count.
This commit updates the logic to clamp the reported
DP_EDP_PWMGEN_BIT_COUNT to the range defined by _CAP_MIN and _CAP_MAX.
As part of this change, the behavior is modified such that reading both
_CAP_MIN and _CAP_MAX registers is now required to succeed, otherwise
bl->max value could end up being not set although
drm_edp_backlight_probe_max() returned success.
This ensures correct handling of eDP panels that report a zero PWM
bit count but still provide valid non-zero MIN and MAX capability
values. Without this clamping, brightness values may be interpreted
incorrectly, leading to a dim or non-functional backlight.
For example, the Samsung ATNA40YK20 OLED panel used in the Lenovo
ThinkPad T14s Gen6 (Snapdragon) reports a PWM bit count of 0, but
supports AUX backlight control and declares a valid 11-bit range.
Clamping ensures brightness scaling works as intended on such panels.
