platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Add backlight ctrl for Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3-X90F
The YT3 uses an TI LP8557 LED backlight controller, the LP8557's PWM input
is connected to a PWM output coming from the LCD panel's controller.
The Android kernel has a hack in the i915 driver to write the non-standard
DSI reg 0x51 with the desired level to set the duty-cycle of the LCD's PWM.
To avoid having to have a similar hack in the mainline kernel program
instantiate an i2c-client for the LP8557 with platform-data to have
the LP8557 to directly set the level (ignoring its PWM input), this allows
backlight brightness control through a backlight device registered by
the lp855x_bl driver.
