[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: keep backlight_enable on until turn eDP display off

This workaround is specific for a particular panel on Google
chromebook project. When user space daemon enter idle state.
It request adjust brightness to 0, turn backlight_enable signal
off and keep eDP main link active.

On general LCD, this behavior might not be a problem.
But on this panel, its tcon would expect source to execute
full eDP power off sequence after drop backlight_enable signal.
Without eDP power off sequence. Even source try to turn
backlight_enable signal on and restore proper brightness level.
This panel is not able to light on again.

This WA ignored the request from user space daemon to disable
backlight_enable signal and keep it on always. When user space
request kernel to turn eDP display off, kernel driver still
can control backlight_enable signal properly. It would not
impact standard eDP power off sequence.
