[GIT PULL] Backlight for v4.11

[GIT PULL] Backlight for v4.11

[Daniel Thompson]

Hi Linus

Normally pull requests for backlight come from Lee Jones (and will
continue to do so) but the bug fixed here is annoying for few people
so I'm providing a little holiday cover.

The following changes since commit 4f7d029b9bf009fbee76bb10c0c4351a1870d2f3:

  Linux 4.11-rc7 (2017-04-16 13:00:18 -0700)

  backlight: pwm_bl: Fix GPIO out for unimplemented .get_direction() (2017-04-19 19:59:44 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
backlight: pwm_bl: Fix GPIO out for unimplemented .get_direction()

Fix a single bug in the PWM backlight driver and make it play nice
with a wider range of GPIO devices. This bug is a regression and was
independently discovered by Geert Uytterhoevan and Paul Kocialkowski
(and is tested by both).

Ha!  Yes, I was using the -nw (no window) version over SSH, since I
was remote.

Thanks for noticing!  Just seeing if you were awake. ;)

LOL. I don't think I've seen that before. Your cut-and-paste seems to
have included the menu line from whatever editor you use (looks like
emacs).

Pulled. Merge message cleaned up ;)
