[PATCH v2 0/6] backlight: Remove struct backlight_properties.fb_blank

The field fb_blank in struct backlight_properties has been marked for
removal. Remove it in favor of the power and state fields.

Patches 1 to 5 prepare several backlight drivers. They remove fb_blank
or replace driver code with existing helpers.

Patch 6 removes fb_blank from backlight core and drivers. This resolves
another dependency between backlight nad fbdev.

v2:
- omap1: replace 'power' with 'enable'
- clarify commit messages
