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.

<title>backlight: Fix external uses of backlight internal semaphore</title>

backlight_device-&gt;sem has a very specific use as documented in the
header file. The external users of this are using it for a different
reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method.

backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal
serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing
things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to
take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all.

Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't
need it.

Also update the lcd class in a similar way.

Fix up arch-specific work items where possible to use the new work_struct and
delayed_work structs.

Three places that enqueue bits of their stack and then return have been marked
with #error as this is not permitted.

<title>[PATCH] powermac: More powermac backlight fixes</title>

<id>4b755999d6e0c1d988fb448289abb6c226cd8c36</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes several problems:
- The legacy backlight value might be set at interrupt time. Introduced
  a worker to prevent it from directly calling the backlight code.
- via-pmu allows the backlight to be grabbed, in which case we need to
  prevent other kernel code from changing the brightness.
- Don't send PMU requests in via-pmu-backlight when the machine is about
  to sleep or waking up.
- More Kconfig fixes.

Now that get_property() returns a void *, there's no need to cast its
return value. Also, treat the return value as const, so we can
constify get_property later.

This patch fixes several problems:
- pmac_backlight_key() is called under interrupt context, and therefore
  can't use mutexes or semaphores, so defer the backlight level for
  later, as it's not critical (original code by Aristeu S. Rozanski F.
  &lt;aris@valeta.org&gt;).
- Add exports for functions that might be called from modules
- Fix Kconfig depdencies on PMAC_BACKLIGHT.
- Fix locking issues on calls from inside the driver (reported by
  Aristeu S. Rozanski F., too)
- Fix wrong calculation of backlight values in some of the drivers
- Replace pmac_backlight_key_up/down by inline functions
