[PATCH v9 5/5] drm/i915: Set PWM divider to match desired frequency in vbt

Good catch.
It will use default frequency in this case. But it is better to not
set DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_FREQ_AUX_SET_CAP in this case.

I will add return value to intel_dp_aux_set_pwm_freq() and set
DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_FREQ_AUX_SET_CAP based on that.
