[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Don't enable backlight at setup time.

[Dhinakaran Pandiyan]

Maarten and Ville noticed that we are enabling backlight via DP aux very
early in the modeset_init path via the intel_dp_aux_setup_backlight()
function. Looks like all we need to do during _setup_backlight() is
read the current brightness state instead of modifying it, so I don't
why need to _enable_backlight() from _setup_backlight().
