Merge tag 'backlight-for-linus-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lee/backlight

Pull backlight updates from Lee Jones:
 "New Device Support
   - None

  New Functionality:
   - None

  Core Frameworks:
   - Reject legacy PWM request for device defined in DT

  Fix-ups:
   - Remove unnecessary MODULE_ALIAS(); adp8860_bl, adp8870_bl
   - Simplify code: pm8941-wled
   - Supply default-brightness logic; pm8941-wled

  Bug Fixes:
   - Clean up OF node; 88pm860x_bl
   - Ensure struct is zeroed; lp855x_bl"
