Subject: drm/i915: don't warn if backlight unexpectedly enabled

commit 813008cd3e93ea8a571b2b7d5b9360a3105b50f7 upstream.

BIOS or firmware can modify hardware state during suspend/resume,
for example on the Toshiba CB35 or Lenovo T400, so log a debug message
instead of a warning if the backlight is unexpectedly enabled.
