This looks okay in general, although see one comment below.
I've got some patches pending for toshiba_acpi that may conflict with
these a bit, but that should be easy to sort out. However I'm also
working on some backlight changes (currently waiting for test feedback,
as I don't have affected hardware for some of the changes) that are
likely to require some coordination to ensure nothing gets broken. I'll
Cc you on the patch when it's finished so that you can test it.

You probably should also be turning the backlight off when
BL_CORE_FBBLANK is set in bd->props.state.
It looks like it would probably be a good idea to support the
BL_CORE_SUSPENDRESUME option and disable the tr_backlight when
BL_CORE_SUSPEND is set as well.
