[PATCH v1 1/1] backlight: drop EARLY_EVENT_BLANK support

There was no users left - so drop the code to support EARLY_FB_BLANK.
This patch removes the support in backlight,
and drop the notifier in fbmem.

That EARLY_FB_BLANK is not used can be verified that no driver set any of:

    lcd_ops.early_set_power()
    lcd_ops.r_early_set_power()

Noticed while browsing backlight code for other reasons.

Build tested with various architectures, configs.

Lee, Daniel - OK to commit to drm-misc-next where fbdev stuff is
maintained today?

Patch needs ack from Bartlomiej first of course.
