PS. Please apply this patch on top of "Add DPCD backlight support for
Spectre x360 Convertible 13t-aw100".

[Impact]
PWM backlight doesn't work on an upcoming HP CML system.

[Fix]
Use DPCD to control backlight instead of PWM.

[Test]
With this patch applied, changing backlight sysfs can change the
brightness.

[Regression Potential]
Low. This is specific to panel ID, which is unique.
