[PATCH] drm/amd/display: Validate backlight caps are sane

[Mario Limonciello]

Currently amdgpu takes backlight caps provided by the ACPI tables
on systems as is.  If the firmware sets maximums that are too low
this means that users don't get a good experience.

To avoid having to maintain a quirk list of such systems, do a sanity
check on the values.  Check that the spread is at least half of the
values that amdgpu would use if no ACPI table was found and if not
use the amdgpu defaults.
