I have one implementation question though - should backlight drivers be in

fb_register_client() so maybe the latter would be preferred?

Try to keep pieces of code sorted on their function first. It is harder 
for a subsystem maintainer to go all over the tree looking for all files 
that a particular change to the subsystem might affect than it is for an 
architecture maintainer to look after files affecting a specific 
architecture.
