[PATCH v3] backlight: gpio_backlight: Drop output gpio direction check for initial power state

[Ying Liu <victor.liu@nxp.com>]

If gpio pin is in input state but backlight is currently off due to
default pull downs, then initial power state is set to FB_BLANK_UNBLANK
in DT boot mode with phandle link and the backlight is effectively
turned on in gpio_backlight_probe(), which is undesirable according to
patch description of commit ec665b756e6f ("backlight: gpio-backlight:
Correct initial power state handling").

Quote:
---
If in DT boot we have phandle link then leave the GPIO in a state which the
bootloader left it and let the user of the backlight to configure it further.
---

So, let's drop output gpio direction check and only check gpio value to set
the initial power state.
