The field fb_blank in struct backlight_properties has been marked for removal. Remove it in favor of the power and state fields. Patches 1 to 5 prepare several backlight drivers. They remove fb_blank or replace driver code with existing helpers. Patch 6 removes fb_blank from backlight core and drivers. This resolves another dependency between backlight nad fbdev.
