Thanks for the proposed fix patch.

Steps to reproduce:

# tuxmake --runtime podman --target-arch powerpc --toolchain gcc-13
--kconfig ppc6xx_defconfig --kconfig-add CONFIG_PMAC_BACKLIGHT=y
config debugkernel dtbs kernel modules xipkernel

# Applying patch set
Applying: fbdev/chipsfb: Include <linux/backlight.h>

The reported build regression is fixed but build failed with below errors.

My two cents,

I should have copied the full build error log in the morning.

Few more build errors on powerpc builds,
