Thomas Weißschuh c5842f1dad drm: Add panel backlight quirks ...

[ Upstream commit 22e5c7ae12145af13785e3ff138395d5b1a22116 ]

Panels using a PWM-controlled backlight source do not have a standard
way to communicate their valid PWM ranges.
On x86 the ranges are read from ACPI through driver-specific tables.
The built-in ranges are not necessarily correct, or may grow stale if an
older device can be retrofitted with newer panels.

Add a quirk infrastructure with which the minimum valid backlight value
can be maintained as part of the kernel.
