Looking at the drivers I think including a call to backlight_update_status
would simplify a lot of code.

I'm not clear why we need these two above? I thought the long-term plan is
only use backlight_enable/disable and then remove the tri-state power
handling once everyone is converted over?
Or maybe I'm just confused about the goal here ...
