Yeah this seems to do the trick for me for the built-in DSS on LDP.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP2+: Fix LCD panel backlight regression for LDP legacy booting
Looks like the LCD panel on LDP has been broken quite a while, and
recently got fixed. However, there's still an issue where the panel
backlight does not come on if the LCD drivers are built into the
kernel.
Fix the issue by registering the DPI LCD panel only after the twl4030
GPIO has probed.
