I had to actually read this patch a number of times and then realized I
was completely missing the context. Looking at the whole function makes
it more obvious what you mean.

However I think it'd be much clearer if we just passed the value of
bl->props.brightness into the callbacks, that way we can avoid the
additional variable.
