Sounds reasonable. I think there is already a stub implementation for
this function, so it's a little awkward gating on one CONFIG and not
another. Given Noralf's idea that backlight_get() be a general purpose
accessor, it makes a bit more sense to gate the entire function on
CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DRIVER and only a portion on CONFIG_OF.

So, I guess I'm fine with leaving this here.
