6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann at suse.de>

commit 7b91d017f77c1bda56f27c2f4bbb70de7c6eca08 upstream.

Struct gpio_backlight_platform_data refers to a platform device within
the Linux device hierarchy. The test in gpio_backlight_check_fb()
compares it against the fbdev device in struct fb_info.dev, which
is different. Fix the test by comparing to struct fb_info.device.

Fixes a bug in the backlight driver and prepares fbdev for making
struct fb_info.dev optional.

v2:
	* move renames into separate patch (Javier, Sam, Michael)
