Just to check... some DRM drivers do allow themselves to work if 
CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE isn't enabled (as discussed earlier in the 
thread ;-). Did you consider what happens when this happens.

Wrapped up with backlight_put() we are sure never to accidentally 
dereference bd in DRM de-init paths when CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICVE 
if it is not set. With a raw put_device() all that conditional logic 
ends up on the driver.
