Chris,

My commit message was confusing. I will redo the commit message in the
next version of my patch.

Yes, the kernel is meant to restore the previous configuration upon
resume. In this test, before system suspend, DPMS is turned off which
sets the crtc state to inactive and edp backlight to off. After system
resume, the crtc state should still be inactive and dpms and edp
backlight should still be off. After system resume, before setting the
backlight brighness, the test should turn on the DPMS. Turning on the
DPMS would set the CRTC state to active and turn on the backlight.
