Okay that makes sense. Initially, I thought that we could add the
declarations/definitions along with of_find_backlight_by_node in
linux/backlight.h as I hadn't realized that each .c file should strictly
have a one to one correspondence with the .h file of the same name but
as you mentioned, it is necessary in a large/complex project like this.
Thank you for the clarifications !
