I'm not sure I understand this one. I'm wondering if you could help me out
with it before I follow up with v4.

Currently I read in the current brightness level in probe() (which
prevents struct backlight_properties, below, from being const) and the
nthe brightness is entirely in control of the driver via
update_status().

What would I need get_brightness() for? We know that whatever the driver
set is the current level. It doesn't seem to be called on backlight
device registration so it doesn't make the readin in probe()
unnecessary either.
