It will work, the compiler doesn't complain as long as you include
backlight.h and make sure drm_of.c is built. But that would result
in a complexity that humans would struggle to get right. And in this
case it's even 2 different subsystems with different maintainers...
So in order to succeed with complex projects, humans need some more
rules than what the compiler requires. And one of those are:
A header file is usually connected to a source file.
backlight.h contains prototypes and definitions for backlight.c
drm_of.h contains prototypes and definitions for drm_of.c
