    backlight: lm3639: Fully initialize backlight_properties during probe
    
    [ Upstream commit abb5a5d951fbea3feb5c4ba179b89bb96a1d3462 ]
    
    props is stack allocated and the fields that are not explcitly set
    by the probe function need to be zeroed or we'll get undefined behaviour
    (especially so power/blank states)!
