This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging/fbtft: Fix backlight
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Commit b4a1ed0cd18b ("fbdev: make FB_BACKLIGHT a tristate") forgot to
update fbtft breaking its backlight support when FB_BACKLIGHT is a module.
Since FB_TFT selects FB_BACKLIGHT there's no need for this conditional
so just remove it and we're good.
