[PATCH v4] backlight: pwm_bl: Fix uninitialized variable

[Daniel Thompson]

Currently, if the DT does not define num-interpolated-steps then
num_steps is undefined and the interpolation code will deploy randomly.
Fix with a simple initialize to zero.

Notes:
    v4:
     - Remove line break from Fixes: and update the *-by:s
    
    v3:
     - Switch to the simplest fix and zero the uninitialized variable. git
       grep indicates that ~25% of calls to of_property_read_u32() use this
       pattern (pre-initialize optional properties with sane values and
       ignore the return code).
    
    v2:
     - Simplify SoB chain (with Marcel's permission)
     - Separate complex if statement and make other similar calls use same
       return code checking approach
     - Tidy up comment formatting and fix pre-existing grammar error
