[PATCH] drm/dp: Simplify return statement in drm_edp_backlight_enable

[PATCH] drm/dp: Simplify return statement in drm_edp_backlight_enable

[Nai-Chen Cheng]

Remove dead code in error handling path. When drm_dp_dpcd_write_byte()
fails and ret < 0, the condition in "ret < 0 ? ret : -EIO" will always
be true, making -EIO unreachable.

Simplify by directly returning the error code from
drm_dp_dpcd_write_byte(), which provides more specific error information
for debugging.
