I am not sure what you mean by writing the mode in backlight enable. 
The panel I am testing with doesn’t  have the mode set to CONTROL_MODE_PRESET after a power cycle.

I have changed the code to look like this, is this what you mean?

static bool intel_dp_aux_display_control_capable(struct intel_connector *connector)
{
	struct intel_dp *intel_dp = enc_to_intel_dp(&connector->encoder->base);
	uint8_t dpcd_buf = 0;

	/* Check the  eDP Display control capabilities registers to determine if
	 * the panel can support backlight control over the aux channel*/

	if (intel_dp->edp_dpcd[1] & DP_EDP_TCON_BACKLIGHT_ADJUSTMENT_CAP &&
			(intel_dp->edp_dpcd[1] & DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_AUX_ENABLE_CAP) &&
			!(intel_dp->edp_dpcd[2] & DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_BRIGHTNESS_PWM_PIN_CAP) &&
			(intel_dp->edp_dpcd[2] & DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_BRIGHTNESS_AUX_SET_CAP) ) {

		DRM_DEBUG_KMS("AUX Backlight Control Supported!\n");
		set_aux_backlight_enable(intel_dp, true);
		if ((intel_dp_dpcd_read_wake(&intel_dp->aux,
			DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_MODE_SET_REGISTER, &dpcd_buf, 1) == 1) &&
			((dpcd_buf & DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_MASK) ==
					DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_PRESET))
		drm_dp_dpcd_writeb(&intel_dp->aux, DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_MODE_SET_REGISTER,
				(dpcd_buf | DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_DPCD));

		return true;
	}
	return false;
}
