On the off chance 'panel_cntl' ends up being not properly initialized, dcn21_set_backlight_level() may hit NULL pointer dereference while changing embedded panel backlight levels. Prevent this issue by using some of the existing checks for the similar purpose. At the same time clean up redundant tests for NULL in 'abm'.
