Bartosz Golaszewski 706dc68102 backlight: gpio: Explicitly set the direction of the GPIO
The GPIO backlight driver currently requests the line 'as is', without
acively setting its direction. This can lead to problems: if the line
is in input mode by default, we won't be able to drive it later when
updating the status and also reading its initial value doesn't make
sense for backlight setting.

Request the line 'as is' initially, so that we can read its value
without affecting it but then change the direction to output explicitly
when setting the initial brightness.

Also: check the current direction and only read the value if it's output.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
