This is an internal function so no need for docs or exporting. I know
that some devm_ functions have explicit release functions, but I don't
think this is necessary since those users can just use
drm_of_find_backlight() directly instead.

No need to mention tinydrm here.

We need a dummy version of devm_drm_of_find_backlight() here that
returns NULL as in the previous patch.

And this isn't needed as explained above.

I'd appreciate if you could also switch mi0283qt over to this helper :-)
