Struct lv5207lp_platform_data refers to a platform device within
the Linux device hierarchy. The test in lv5207lp_backlight_check_fb()
compares it against the fbdev device in struct fb_info.dev, which
is different. Fix the test by comparing to struct fb_info.device.
Fixes a bug in the backlight driver and prepares fbdev for making
struct fb_info.dev optional.
v2:
* move renames into separate patch (Javier, Sam, Michael)
Fixes: 82e5c40d88 ("backlight: Add Sanyo LV5207LP backlight driver")

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.
