Subject: [PATCH] mx3fb: some debug and initialisation fixes.

Hi all!
I've already sent this patch to the linux-arm-kernel mailing list
but I've not cc'ed you.

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/71120

This patch apply to linus .33-rc4 tree, tell me if I have to rebase
it over other repository.

Thanks

patch below..
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Fix the kernel oops when dev_dbg is called with mx3_fbi->txd == NULL

Fix the late initialisation of mx3fb->backlight_level.
If not, in the chain of function started by init_fb_chan(), in __blank() call 
sdc_set_brightness(mx3fb, mx3fb->backlight_level) that will shut down
the CONTRAST PWM output.
