I have done this.  Writing 4 to bl_power did indeed turn the backlight off,
and 0 restored it.  Annotated output from dmesg is at the end of this
message.

Ok, no problem.  Obviously I'm still happy to test as required.

To clarify, I see no reason why the earlier 2-patch cleanup series can't go
in at this stage.  It's only this 4-part patch which needs revision in light
of recent findings.
