This adds the OMAP1 PWL-based LCD backlight driver. It's been in the OMAP
tree for some time. Note that OMAP2 can do similar things with the generic
timers which have PWM outputs. Such timers are more generic than the PWL
found on OMAP1 chips, but have a different EMI profile because they aren't
driven by a pseudorandom number generator.

On the sam9 EK boards, the LCD backlight is hooked up to a PWM output from
the LCD controller. It's controlled by "contrast" registers though.
This patch lets boards declare that they have that kind of backlight
control. The driver can then export this control, letting screenblank and
other operations actually take effect ... reducing the typically
substantial power drain from the backlight.
Note that it's not fully cooked
- doesn't force backlight off during system suspend
- the "power" and "blank" events may not be done right
This should be easily added in the future.

Convert the corgi backlight driver to a more generic version
so it can be reused by other code rather than being Zaurus/PXA
specific.

This patch adds support for powering on and off the Samsung LTV350QV LCD
panel via SPI. The driver responds to framebuffer power management, it
powers off the panel on reboot/halt/poweroff. It can also be controlled
through sysfs. The panel is powered up when the module is loaded, and off
when the module is unloaded. Verified on AVR32 STK1000.

Currently its possible to build the backlight core as a module yet
compile the drivers into the kernel which gives missing symbols.

The backlight and lcd subsystems can be notified by the framebuffer layer
of blanking events. However, these subsystems, as a whole, can function
independently from the framebuffer layer. But in order to enable to the
lcd and backlight subsystems, the framebuffer has to be compiled also,
effectively sucking in a huge amount of unneeded code.
To prevent dependency problems, separate out the framebuffer notification
mechanism from the framebuffer layer and permanently link it to the kernel.

Generalise the Corgi backlight driver by moving the default intensity and
limit mask settings into the platform specific data structure. This enables
the driver to support other Zaurus hardware, specifically the SL-6000x (Tosa)
model.
Also change the spinlock to a mutex (the spinlock is overkill).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
