The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

Introduce the backlight_get_brightness() helper in all
video/backlight/* drivers. This simplifies the code and align the
implementation of the update_status() operation across the different
backlight drivers.
Some of the drivers gains a little extra functionality by the change
as they now respect the fb_blank() ioctl.

This patch adds a led-backlight driver (led_bl), which is similar to
pwm_bl except the driver uses a LED class driver to adjust the
brightness in the HW. Multiple LEDs can be used for a single backlight.
