[PATCH] fbdev: Fix crashes in various fbdev's blank routines

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

The backlight changes that went in 2.6.18 had a bug where they could
cause the kernel to access an unitialized pointer when blanking if there
is no backlight control on a machine. The bug affects atyfb, aty128fb,
nvidiafb and rivafb. radeonfb seems to be ok. This fixes it.

This is a 2.6.18 regression, please merge before release ! It breaks a
number of non-laptop powermacs (among others I suppose).
