Can you explain how you reach this conclusion?

I only checked two drivers (the first two when you list the drivers
an alphabetic order) but both contain code that appears to match the
pattern you are targeting.

For mechanical patches of this nature I don't think there is any need
for acks from individual backlight driver authors. Reviews are 100%
welcome but we would not hold a single patch back until all authors
have reviewed it.
