Hi Thomas,

Remove the field fb_blank from struct backlight_properties and remove all
code that still sets or reads it. Backlight blank status is now tracked exclusively
in struct backlight_properties.state.

The core backlight code keeps the fb_blank and state fields in sync, but doesn't
do anything else with fb_blank. Several drivers initialize fb_blank to
FB_BLANK_UNBLANK to enable the backlight. This is already the default for
the state field. So we can delete the fb_blank code from core and drivers and
rely on the state field.

Can you explain what are the differences between the version 1 and version 2 of the patch?

There are none. It's simply labeled v2 because it is part of the version 2 of this series.

Best regards
Thomas

Thanks,
Flavio
