Hans de Goede 1f90b12327 drm/gma500: Refactor backlight support (v2) ...

Refactor backlight support so that the gma_backlight_enable() /
gma_backlight_disable() / gma_backlight_set() functions used by
the Opregion handle will also work if no backlight_device gets
registered.

This is a preparation patch for not registering the gma500's own backlight
device when acpi_video should be used, since registering 2 backlight
devices for a single display really is undesirable.

Since the acpi-video interface often uses the OpRegion we need to keep
the OpRegion functional even when dev_priv->backlight_device is NULL.

As a result of this refactor the actual backlight_device_register()
call is moved to the shared backlight.c code and all #ifdefs related to
CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE are now also limited to backlight.c .

No functional changes intended.

This has been tested on a Packard Bell Dot SC (Intel Atom N2600, cedarview)
and a Sony Vaio vpc-x11s1e (Intel N540, poulsbo) laptop.

Changes in v2:
- Fix unused variable warnings when CONFIG_BACKLIGHT is not selected by
  marking the 2 variables as  __maybe_unused.
