Subject: [15/87] drm/i915: Fix calculation of backlight value in combined mode

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit ba3820ade317ee36e496b9b40d2ec3987dd4aef0 upstream.

[The upstream commit above is a combination of revert + one-liner fix.
 This patch contains only the latter that is needed for 2.6.37.x.]

This patch fixes the backlight level calculation for combination mode
used in some models like GM45.  It's due to a wrong bit shift
introduced by the commit a95735569312f2ab0c80425e2cd1e5cb0b4e1870
    drm/i915: Refactor panel backlight controls
