Subject: [PATCH 3.16 260/294] video: mx3fb: always enable BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT

3.16.50-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

commit 9c8ee3c7341393811d5be5eb61b815e76f92c799 upstream.

Commit 7edaa761ee81b ("video: mx3fb: Add backlight control support")
changed the mx3fb driver so it always selects the BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
symbol, but that is hidden behind BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT in Kconfig, so
we get a Kconfig warning for multi_v5_defconfig, which doesn't have that:

Warning: (DRM_RADEON && DRM_NOUVEAU && DRM_I915 && DRM_GMA500 &&
DRM_SHMOBILE && DRM_TILCDC && FB_BACKLIGHT && FB_MX3 && USB_APPLEDISPLAY
&& FB_OLPC_DCON && ASUS_LAPTOP && SONY_LAPTOP && THINKPAD_ACPI &&
EEEPC_LAPTOP && ACPI_CMPC && SAMSUNG_Q10) selects BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
which has unmet direct dependencies (HAS_IOMEM && BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT)

This makes sure we always enable both symbols together for mx3fb, like
we do for the other drivers that can't be built without backlight
support. Note that a better solution would be to ensure the driver can
work with or without backlight support.
