Subject: [PATCH] drm/amd/display: Fix swap in median3() for DSC rate control

median3() is meant to return the median of three values, but its last
compare-and-swap step swaps b and c instead of a and b. When c is
smaller than both a and b, it returns max(a, b) instead of min(a, b).
For example, median3(2, 3, 1) returns 3 instead of 2.

_do_calc_rc_params() always passes 0 as the first argument, and the
second argument is never below 12. So whenever the third argument is
negative, first_line_bpg_offset (and second_line_bpg_offset for 4:2:0)
is set to the second argument instead of 0.

Fix this by swapping a and b in the last step, as intended.

Note that this change does not affect valid DSC configurations. The
third argument is negative only when bits per pixel exceeds the
uncompressed rate of the colour format:

 - 3 * bpc for 4:4:4, 3 * bpc + 2 for RGB

 - 2 * bpc for 4:2:2

 - 1.5 * bpc for 4:2:0
