[GIT PULL] Backlight for v4.5

From: Lee Jones

Hi Linus,

Some of the patches in this set haven't had as long of a -next
soak-test as I normally like. This is due to a combination of
me taking a vacation from -rc4 and unusually short -rc releases
during the v4.4 cycle.

I'm keen not to let down contributors so I am sending the pull-
request out in the full knowledge that a snot-o-gram might well
be winging it's way to me in receipt. I have taken due care to
thoroughly build test the set as much as possible, but if there
are any issues I'll take the time to provide reason and
apologise in advance now.

The following changes since commit 1ec218373b8ebda821aec00bb156a9c94fad9cd4:
