If you look in panel-samsung-s6e63m0.c you can see how that driver actually
uses a set of gamma+power (ACL) settings to regulate the "backlight",
i.e. the brightness of the OLED display. You might want to implement
something similar in your driver to actually provide the user with a
brightness setting.

It's a bit unfortunate that this is for historical reasons called "backlight"
but the usecase is definitely the same.
