Subject: pwm_backlight: add check_fb() hook
From: Robert Morell <rmorell@xxxxxxxxxx>
In systems with multiple framebuffer devices, one of the devices might be
blanked while another is unblanked. In order for the backlight blanking
logic to know whether to turn off the backlight for a particular
framebuffer's blanking notification, it needs to be able to check if a
given framebuffer device corresponds to the backlight.
This plumbs the check_fb hook from core backlight through the
pwm_backlight helper to allow platform code to plug in a check_fb hook.
