[PATCH] drm/amd/display: avoid passing enum as NULL pointer

The mod_freesync_build_vrr_infopacket() function uses rather obscure
calling conventions, where an enum is passed in through a pointer,
and a NULL pointer is expected to behave the same way as the zero-value
(TRANSFER_FUNC_UNKNOWN).

Trying to build this with clang results in a warning:

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm.c:4601:3: error: expression which evaluates to zero treated
      as a null pointer constant of type 'const enum color_transfer_func *' [-Werror,-Wnon-literal-null-conversion]

Passing it by value instead of by reference makes the code simpler
and more conventional but should not change the behavior at all.

Fixes: c2791297013e ("drm/amd/display: Add color bit info to freesync infoframe")
