Subject: [PATCH v5 2/5] drm/nouveau/kms/nv50-: Explicitly check DPCD backlights for aux enable/brightness

Since we don't support hybrid AUX/PWM backlights in nouveau right now,
let's add some explicit checks so that we don't break nouveau once we
enable support for these backlights in other drivers.
