as discussed on IRC, it would be better if the default read back the
current settings (so-as to inherit bootloader splash smoothly..
drm/msm supports a memory-region phandle, for example, so it can take
over the bootloader splash-screen as stolen-mem)

and it would I think be useful to have a comment in the bindings file
explaining that you *should* use the default-brightness property to
set a sane default if bootloader isn't putting up a splash, and you
should *not* use the property if it is..
