Based on the discussion the rest of the series is going to be dropped, but
what about this single patch?
I think it is still addresses a valid issue, which is that in non DT boot we
do not check if the dft_brightness is within valid range.

I can resend this patch alone since it is not going to apply on mainline as it is.
