[PATCH 5.8 042/148] drm/amd/display: fix pow() crashing when given base 0

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Krunoslav Kovac <Krunoslav.Kovac@xxxxxxx>

commit d2e59d0ff4c44d1f6f8ed884a5bea7d1bb7fd98c upstream.

[Why&How]
pow(a,x) is implemented as exp(x*log(a)). log(0) will crash.
So return 0^x = 0, unless x=0, convention seems to be 0^0 = 1.
