Glad you got it working :) For backlight you can add this
in drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm/displays/panel-dsi-cm.c:

add the following code at the end of dsicm_probe:

-----------------------------------------------------------
mutex_unlock(&ddata->lock);
mutex_lock(&ddata->lock);
ddata->in->ops.dsi->bus_lock(ddata->in);
r = dsicm_wake_up(ddata);
if (!r)
    r = dsicm_dcs_write_1(ddata, DCS_BRIGHTNESS, 100);
ddata->in->ops.dsi->bus_unlock(ddata->in);
mutex_unlock(&ddata->lock);
-----------------------------------------------------------
