[PATCH 2/2] atmel_lcdfb: blank the backlight on remove

From: Richard Genoud
Date: Fri May 31 2013 - 10:29:13 EST


When removing atmel_lcdfb module, the backlight is unregistered but not
blanked. (only for CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_ATMEL_LCDC case).
This can result in the screen going full white depending on how the PWM
is wired.
