Subject: [67/74] mx3fb: some debug and initialisation fixes

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Alberto Panizzo <maramaopercheseimorto@...il.com>

commit b3cb53721890879d7bde31f5f9eefd4edf41ab64 upstream.

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.
