Hans de Goede 637088a21e drm/i915/backlight: Make ext_pwm_disable_backlight() call intel_backlight_set_pwm_level()
At least the Bay Trail LPSS PWM controller used with DSI panels on many
Bay Trail tablets seems to leave the PWM pin in whatever state it was
(high or low) ATM that the PWM gets disabled. Combined with some panels
not having a separate backlight-enable pin this leads to the backlight
sometimes staying on while it should not (when the pin was high during
PWM-disabling).

First calling intel_backlight_set_pwm_level() will ensure that the pin
is always low (or high for inverted brightness panels) since the passed
in duty-cycle is 0% (or 100%) when the PWM gets disabled fixing the
backlight sometimes staying on.

With the exception of ext_pwm_disable_backlight() all other
foo_disable_backlight() functions call intel_backlight_set_pwm_level()
already before disabling the backlight, so this change also aligns
ext_pwm_disable_backlight() with all the other disable() functions.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
