The commit a55944ca82d2 ("backlight: update bd state & fb_blank properties when necessary") has posed some extra restrictions on blanking and unblanking frame buffer device. Unfortunately, pwm_bl driver's probe did not initialize members of struct backlight_device necessary for further blank/unblank operation. This code in case of initial unblank of backlight device (default behaviour) sets use_count to 1 and marks this particular backlight device as used by all available fb devices (since it is not known during probe how much and which fb devices will be assigned). Without this code, the backlight works properly until one tries to blank it manually from sysfs with "echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank". Since fb_bl_on[0] and use_count were both set to 0, the logic at fb_notifier_callback (@backlight.c) thought that we didn't turn on (unblanked) the backlight device and refuses to disable (blank) it. As a result we see garbage from fb displayed.
