[PATCH v17 00/10] Add backlight helper functions

[Meghana Madhyastha]

Move drm helper functions from tinydrm-helpers to linux/backlight for
ease of use by callers in other drivers.

changes in v17:
-set fb_blank along with clearing the BL_CORE_FBBLANK bit 
-rebase with drm-misc-next
-fix checkpath errors/warnings
-Make the gpio_backlight issue appear as a comment in the
 code and not as part of the docs
-rebase with drm-misc-next
-convert st7735r callers from tinydrm specific helpers
 to new generic backlight helpers
-remove select BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT and select 
 BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE from tinydrm/Kconfig
-fix checkpath errors/warnings
-rename devm_backlight_put to 
 devm_backlight_release
-remove redundant NULL check
-remove put_device() to avoid double put 
 as we are using the devm version
