    "FB: sa1100: remove global sa1100fb_.*_power function pointers"

    got rid of all instances but one in locomolcd.c -- which was
    conditional on CONFIG_SA1100_COLLIE. The associated .power
    field which replaces the global is populated in mach-sa1100/collie.c
    so move the assignment there, but make it conditional on the
    locomolcd support, so use CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_LOCOMO in that file.

  • There may be multiple ways of controlling the backlight on a given
    machine. Allow drivers to expose the type of interface they are
    providing, making it possible for userspace to make appropriate policy
    decisions.

  • ACPI drivers like ibm-acpi are moving to the backlight sysfs
    infrastructure. During ibm-acpi testing, I have noticed that
    backlight_device_unregister() sets the display brightness and power to
    zero.

    This causes the display to be dimmed on ibm-acpi module removal. It will
    affect all other ACPI drivers that are being converted to use the backlight
    class, as well. It also affects a number of framebuffer devices that are
    used on desktops and laptops which might also not want such behaviour.

    Since working around this behaviour requires undesireable hacks, Richard
    Purdie decided that we would be better off reverting the changes in the
    sysfs class, and adding the code to dim and power off the backlight device
    to the drivers that want it. This patch is my attempt to do so.

    Patch against latest linux-2.6.git. Changes untested, as I lack the
    required hardware. Still, they are trivial enough that, apart from typos,
    there is little chance of getting them wrong.
