Since we're about to be moving this code into shared DRM helpers, we might as well start to cache certain backlight capabilities that can be determined from the EDP DPCD, and are likely to be relevant to the majority of drivers using said helpers. The main purpose of this is just to prevent every driver from having to check everything against the eDP DPCD using DP macros, which makes the code slightly easier to read (especially since the names of some of the eDP capabilities don't exactly match up with what we actually need to use them for, like DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_BRIGHTNESS_BYTE_COUNT for instance).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
