change the tag 'verification-needed-hirsute' to 'verification-failed-
hirsute'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

Bug description:
  Backlight does not change. Neither with the keys, nor with the slider.
  Values in /sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_bl0/brightness do change.
  However without effect on the actual brightness of the screen, which
  seems to be stuck at maximum brightness.

  ==============
  SRU justification:

  [Impact]
  backlight can't be controlled on AMD platform.

  [Fix]
  AUX doesn't work on HDR panel, fallback to PWM mode to make backlight be 
controlled.

  [Test]
  Verified on hardware, backlight brightness works fine.

  [Where problems could occur]
  It may break backlight control on AMD platform.
