Takashi Iwai f52c619a59 drm/i915/panel: Always record the backlight level again (but cleverly)
The commit 47356eb672 introduced a
mechanism to record the backlight level only at disabling time, but it
also introduced a regression.  Since intel_lvds_enable() may be called
without disabling (e.g. intel_lvds_commit() calls it unconditionally),
the backlight gets back to the last recorded value.  For example, this
happens when you dim the backlight, close the lid and open the lid,
then the backlight suddenly goes to the brightest.

This patch fixes the bug by recording the backlight level always
when changed via intel_panel_set_backlight().  And,
intel_panel_{enable|disable}_backlight() call the internal function not
to update the recorded level wrongly.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
