PATCH 1/1 fbdev: make FB_BACKLIGHT a tristate

BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE is already tristate, but a dependency FB_BACKLIGHT prevents it from being built as a module. There doesn't seem to be any particularly good reason for this, so switch FB_BACKLIGHT over to tristate.

v2: remove IS_ENABLED() from UABI headers. Userspace doesn't
know the kernel config, so just remove the ifdef guard

maybe we can merge this via drm-misc?

Patch queued for 4.21, thanks (also sorry for the delay).
