Subject: [PATCH 5.4 017/129] drivers: gpu: amd: Initialize amdgpu_dm_backlight_caps object to 0 in amdgpu_dm_update_backlight_caps

From: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 5896585512e5156482335e902f7c7393b940da51 ]

In `amdgpu_dm_update_backlight_caps()`, there is a local
`amdgpu_dm_backlight_caps` object that is filled in by
`amdgpu_acpi_get_backlight_caps()`. However, this object is
uninitialized before the call and hence the subsequent check for
aux_support can fail since it is not initialized by
`amdgpu_acpi_get_backlight_caps()` as well. This change initializes
this local `amdgpu_dm_backlight_caps` object to 0.
