Subject: [PATCH 4.14 16/45] drm/radeon: Fix backlight control on iMac 12,1

From: Nicholas Bishop <nicholasbishop@...gle.com>

commit 364438fd629f7611a84c8e6d7de91659300f1502 upstream.

The iMac 12,1 does not use the gmux driver for backlight, so the radeon
backlight device is needed to set the brightness.
