backlight: Allow enable/disable of fb backlights, fixing regressions

Browse Source 
Enabling the backlight by default appears to cause problems for many
users. This patch disables backlight controls unless explicitly
enabled by users via a module parameter. Since PMAC users are known
to work, default to enabled in that case.
