Hi,

Since 3.18-rc1 backlight is dark after resume from suspend. This is on a Samsung laptop with i5 IvyBridge

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)


I have bisected this problem to the following commit:
73580fb764c4213d305c0d36bd8f856ae631eb42 is the first bad commit

    drm/i915/dp: make backlight bl_power control power sequencer backlight

    This lets the userspace switch off the backlight using the backlight
    class sysfs bl_power file. The switch is done using the power sequencer;
    the backlight PWM, and everything else, remains enabled. The display
    backlight won't draw power, but for maximum power savings the encoder
    needs to be switched off.
