[PATCH v2 3/4] ACPI: video: Drop backlight parent device reference later

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <[email protected]>

Update acpi_video_dev_register_backlight() to put the parent device after
registering the backlight class device under it instead of attempting to
register the backlight class device under a parent that (theoretically)
may be gone at that point.
