Pull backlight updates from Lee Jones:
 "Framebuffer Subsystem (fbdev):
   - The display's blanking status is now tracked in 'struct fb_info'
   - 'framebuffer_alloc()' initializes the blank state to FB_BLANK_UNBLANK
   - 'register_framebuffer()' sets the state to 'FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN' if
     an 'fb_blank' callback exists, ensuring 'FB_EVENT_BLANK' listeners
     correctly see the display being turned on during the first modeset
   - The 'FB_EVENT_BLANK' event data now includes both the new and the
     old blank states
   - 'fb_blank()' has been reworked to return early on errors, without
     functional changes, in preparation for further state tracking
     improvements
   - Fbdev now calls dedicated functions in the backlight subsystems to
     notify them of blank state changes, instead of relying on fbdev
     event notifiers
   - For LCDs, fbdev also calls a dedicated function to notify of mode
     changes
   - Removed the definitions for the unused fbdev event constants
     'FB_EVENT_MODE_CHANGE' and 'FB_EVENT_BLANK' from the header file

  Backlight Subsystem:
   - Implemented fbdev blank state tracking using the (newly enhanced)
     blank state information provided directly by 'FB_EVENT_BLANK'
   - Removed internal blank state tracking fields ('fb_bl_on') from
     'struct backlight_device'
   - Moved the handling of blank-state updates into a separate internal
     helper function, 'backlight_notify_blank()'
   - Removed support for fbdev events and replaced it with a dedicated
     function call interface ('backlight_notify_blank()' and
     'backlight_notify_blank_all()') for display drivers to update
     backlight status

  LCD Subsystem:
   - Moved the handling of display updates (blank events and mode
     changes) from fbdev event notifiers to separate internal helper
     functions ('lcd_notify_blank',
     'lcd_notify_mode_change')
   - Removed support for fbdev events and replaced it with dedicated
     function call interfaces ('lcd_notify_blank_all()',
     'lcd_notify_mode_change_all()')
   - The LCD subsystem now maintains its own internal list of LCD
     devices instead of relying on fbdev notifiers

  LED Backlight Trigger:
   - Moved the handling of blank-state updates into a separate internal
     helper, 'ledtrig_backlight_notify_blank()'
   - Removed support for fbdev events and replaced it with a dedicated
     function call, 'ledtrig_backlight_blank()', for fbdev to notify
     trigger of blank state changes
   - The LED backlight trigger now maintains its own internal list of
     triggers instead of relying on fbdev notifiers

  Qualcomm WLED Backlight:
   - Added a NULL check after 'devm_kasprintf()' in 'wled_configure()'
     to prevent a potential NULL pointer dereference if memory
     allocation fails"
