[PATCH] regulator: rpi-panel-attiny: Use backlight helper

[Stephen Kitt]

backlight_properties.fb_blank is deprecated. The states it represents
are handled by other properties; but instead of accessing those
properties directly, drivers should use the helpers provided by
backlight.h.

Instead of retrieving the backlight brightness in struct
backlight_properties manually, and then checking whether the backlight
should be on at all, use backlight_get_brightness() which does all
this and insulates this from future changes.

Thanks!

[1/1] regulator: rpi-panel-attiny: Use backlight helper
      commit: 8c92d9221d47ea97534888e2975ecd54896718d8

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
