Thanks Daniel, here's the info:

When entering hsw_enable_pc8 during suspend
- the physical backlight is off
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL  == 0x 3a90000 (BACKLIGHT_DUTY_CYCLE_MASK == ffff)
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL2 == 0x60000000
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL  == 0x       0
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL2 == 0x 3a90000

When exiting hsw_disable_pc8 during resume
- the physical backlight is off
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL  == 0x     200
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL2 == 0x80000000 (BLM_PWM_ENABLE)
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL  == 0x80000000
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL2 == 0x 4000000

When entering pch_enable_backlight during resume
- the physical backlight is off
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL  == 0x     200
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL2 == 0x80000000
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL  == 0x80000000
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL2 == 0x 4000000

When exiting pch_enable_backlight during resume
- the physical backlight is off
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL  == duty cycle prior to suspend
- BLC_PWM_CPU_CTL2 == 0xe0000000 (BLM_PWM_ENABLE | BLM_TRANSCODER_EDP)
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL  == 0x80000000
- BLC_PWM_PCH_CTL2 == 0x 3a90000
