ChangeLog v6->v7:
- removed a compilation warning with the removal of the useless ret declaration.

ChangeLog v5->v6:
- The default state handling was reworked:
  - it's now called default-state, and looks like the gpio-leds default-state.
  - it now has a "keep" option, like for the gpio-leds.
  - that "keep" option is the default when the default-state property is not set.
- The documentation was updated accordingly.

ChangeLog v4->v5:
- The default-brightness property now defaults to 0 in the driver.
- def_value int becomes a bool.
- The check for the gpio validity has been reworked.

I'm not sure if "on", "off" and "keep" are a good choice for this
binding. Having strings for these tristate values seems suboptimal.
Other bindings have chosen a representation that, transposed to this
use-case, would read something like this:

	- default-state: The initial state of the backlight. Valid
	  values:
	  - 0: off
	  - 1: on

	If the "default-state" property is not present, the default
	will be to keep the current backlight state.

Which is in fact the exact behaviour that your binding describes, but
it's much more intuitive in my opinion.

Why we cannot use GPIO bindings for active level here?
What a reason for "keep" state? Can this be an additional property?

Default state and active level are two different things.

OK. And what is "default" state? State before "unblank"?

+Required properties:

+  - gpios: describes the gpio that is used for enabling/disabling the backlight

+
+Optional properties:
