Richard Purdie 599a52d126 backlight: Separate backlight properties from backlight ops pointers
Per device data such as brightness belongs to the indivdual device
and should therefore be separate from the the backlight operation
function pointers. This patch splits the two types of data and
allows simplifcation of some code.

* most drivers seem to need this and historically get it wrong.
*
* Most drivers don't need locking on their get_brightness() method.
* If yours does, you need to implement it in the driver. You can use the
* update_lock mutex if appropriate.
*
* Any other use of the locks below is probably wrong.
