On the MSM8974 Nexus 5 and OnePlus One phones (latter doesn't have
display upstream) the display backlight was turning off whenever you
would write a brightness to sysfs since a recent commit to the driver
(kernel v6.5).

  backlight: lm3630a: Turn off both led strings when display is blank 

Turns out, backlight_is_blank() thought the display was blanked because
the props variable is was checking was never actually initialized so it
was just reading some value that was left before.

The first commit in this series fixes this, and the others are some
cleanups / fixes I noticed while working on this.

As last commit, we can finally hook up the panel and backlight on the
Nexus 5 so blanking the screen actually turns off the backlight.
