Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Ensure all backlight drivers zero the properties structure

Luca Weiss recently shared a patch to zero the properties structure for
lm3630a... and shortly afterwards I realized I should probably scan for
a similar class of errors in other drivers.

Results follow in the next four patches (they could all be one patch but
for the fact there are different Fixes: tags)!

Daniel Thompson (4):
  backlight: da9052: Fully initialize backlight_properties during probe
  backlight: lm3639: Fully initialize backlight_properties during probe
  backlight: lp8788: Fully initialize backlight_properties during probe
  backlight: mp3309c: Fully initialize backlight_properties during probe
