when the color log tries to read the gamut remap information from DCN401 which is not initialized in the
dcn401_dpp_funcs which leads to a null pointer dereference. This commit addresses this issue by adding a
proper guard to access the gamut_remap callback in case the specific ASIC did not implement this function.
