[PATCH 1/2] backlight: platform_lcd: Remove DT compatibility string

[PATCH 1/2] backlight: platform_lcd: Remove DT compatibility string

[Alexander Shiyan]

Driver is written for using platform callback functions and it cannot
be used without these functions, so having "platform-lcd" in the device
tree do nothing. This patch removes DT compatibility string.

Rather than remove DT support, we should look into what these
call-back functions to and work to rid those instead. What exactly do
these routines provide?
