What about backlight drivers? [1] Apparently these also use the
notifiers. [2] From my understanding, backlight drivers would stop
working with this change.

I just saw that backlight drivers only care about blanking and
unblanking. Never mind then.

What about backlight drivers? [1] Apparently these also use the
notifiers. [2] From my understanding, backlight drivers would stop
working with this change.
I just saw that backlight drivers only care about blanking and
unblanking. Never mind then.
I did screw this up for one event for the mode changes. But should be
fixed in the next series.

I also added a patch to simplify the backlight/lcd notifier, since it
doesn't need to filter events anymore after this series - the only events
left are the ones backlight cares about.

Cheers, Daniel
