Ok Jani's on vacation and this address my major concern, so I'm
volunteered to merge this. But it seems to conflict against latest
drm-intel-next-queued, and against some other backlight refactoring stuff,
so I don't feel safe wrestling it myself.

Can you pls rebase?

Sorry for all this dragging out.

Thanks, Daniel
