Values such as max_brightness should be set before backlights are
registered, but the current API doesn't allow that. Add a parameter to
backlight_device_register and update drivers to ensure that they
set this correctly.

Add the device to the notify callback's arguments in the PWM backlight 
driver. This brings the notify callback into line with the other 
callbacks defined by this driver.

When suspending, pwm-bl sets duty cycle to 0, and shuts down the pwm
device.

This patch ensure that the platform code is called before that
(through the notify callback_, leaving a chance for the platform code
to configure GPIOs (shutting off the backlight, for example), much like
it is done during normal operations.

When multiple PWMs are used as backlights, the current code uses
pdev->name as the backlight name when registering, which will be
conflicting, use dev_name() instead.

Make the error paths in the pwm_backlight driver more informative in the
