Intel i915 Backlight Patch

With the new kernel the backlight stopped working we had a patch written by jan michael brummer, but the patch stopped working probably due to code changes can we get a new patch?

I have attached the patch that was created 

It fails on Hunk #7  

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c


+static int vlv_pmic_setup_backlight(struct intel_connector *connector)
+{
+	struct intel_panel *panel = &connector->panel;
+
+	printk("vlv_pmic_setup_backlight\n");
+	panel->backlight.present = 1;
+	panel->backlight.min = 0x00;
+	panel->backlight.max = 0xFF;
+	panel->backlight.level = 20;
+	panel->backlight.enabled = 1;
+
+	return 0;
+}

Similar to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85977

There's generally no support for out-of-tree code breakage. But since I couldn't find a feature request bug for T100 backlight, I'll leave this open for now.

This should be fixed upstream.

Please file any new bug reports at the freedesktop.org bugzilla [1]. Thank you.
