Looks like I was left off of the original submission. I can't apply a quoted patch. Please re-submit.

Please re-submit. I see. It seems the patch is available in both Lore and Patchwork: https://lore.kernel.org/all/072e01b7-8554-de4f-046a-da11af3958d6@denx.de/T/ https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/443823/

The note in c2adda27d202f ("video: backlight: Add of_find_backlight helper in backlight.c") says that gpio-backlight uses brightness as power state. This has been fixed since in ec665b756e6f7 ("backlight: gpio-backlight: Correct initial power state handling") and other backlight drivers do not require this workaround. Drop the workaround. This fixes the case where e.g. pwm-backlight can perfectly well be set to brightness 0 on boot in DT, which without this patch leads to the display brightness to be max instead of off.
