That's clearly bonkers, it ends up selecting
DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_PRODUCT by accident, not
DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_DPCD, because it doesn't mask the bits.

Based on the current requirements for using DPCD backlight control, the
only power-on default we should end up here with is
DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_CONTROL_MODE_PRESET.

In particular, I don't think we should accept the PRODUCT mode without
ensuring we output PWM to the eDP pins as well. And currently DPCD and
PWM controls are mutually exclusive.
