I don't really know what would be the best. I think if anyone adds a
driver for any other kind of display (example: OLED), he/she can
create a oledclass, that maybe need more funcionality than just the
simple lcdclass.

There's already an lcd_class in drivers/video/backlight/lcd.c with
name "lcd". Could be confusing to have an lcdclass_class with name
"LCD" as well...
