I can't find anything showing the outcome of that.

That seems a little odd to me. If we "just know" this then I'd hope that is could either be modelled in the devicetree or that it would be possible for the backlight driver to be registered (possibly using helpers) by whatever it is that is setting up struct drm_dp_aux in the first place.
