Do not select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE from FB_BACKLIGHT. The latter
only controls backlight support within fbdev core code and data
structures.
Make fbdev drivers depend on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE and let users
select it explicitly. Fixes warnings about recursive dependencies,
such as
error: recursive dependency detected!
symbol BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE is selected by FB_BACKLIGHT
symbol FB_BACKLIGHT is selected by FB_SH_MOBILE_LCDC
symbol FB_SH_MOBILE_LCDC depends on FB_DEVICE
symbol FB_DEVICE depends on FB_CORE
symbol FB_CORE is selected by DRM_GEM_DMA_HELPER
symbol DRM_GEM_DMA_HELPER is selected by DRM_PANEL_ILITEK_ILI9341
symbol DRM_PANEL_ILITEK_ILI9341 depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE is user-selectable, so making drivers adapt to
it is the correct approach in any case. For most drivers, backlight
support is also configurable separately.
