Subject: drm/ast: Fix AST2400 POST failure without BMC FW or VBIOS

From: Y.C. Chen <[email protected]>

commit 3856081eede297b617560b85e948cfb00bb395ec upstream.

The current POST code for the AST2300/2400 family doesn't work properly if the chip hasn't been initialized previously by either the BMC own FW or the VBIOS. This fixes it.
